Seneca7

Seneca7 : Geneva, NY

Seneca7 is a seven person relay that circumnavigates Seneca Lake over 77.7'ish miles, running counter-clockwise and starting and finishing at the Finger Lakes Welcome Center in Lakefront Park, Geneva. The course passes vineyards, small towns, a waterfall in Hector, and sections through state parks such as Sampson, offering frequent views of Seneca Lake.

Teams must register as seven members with signed waivers by the stated deadline and maintain the same running order throughout the race. Relays are provided a slap bracelet to use as a baton, bib numbers with one bib carrying the timing chip for the final leg, and a safety vest that must be worn on specified legs and by any runner on the course after 7 p.m. Teams may use only one vehicle that fits in a standard parking space; additional vehicles are not permitted at staging areas. Certain exchange points include designated road crossings and timing restrictions; teams arriving too early or too late at specific exchanges may be held, receive time penalties, or be removed from the course.

Participants are expected to be self-supported for hydration and fuel, and all teams must carry a printed or downloaded copy of the course guide because some areas lack cell reception. Live team tracking and official finish results are used during the event. Registration opens each October and has historically filled very quickly.
