Ville to Ville Sprint Relay
The Ville to Ville Sprint Relay is a three person running relay covering a total of 21 miles with start and finish at Trailblazer Park in Travelers Rest, SC. The route runs along the Swamp Rabbit Trail. A post-race tailgate at the finish includes music, college football, and craft brews. All runners receive a commemorative race shirt and a finisher's medal.
Race format divides the course into six legs; each consecutive leg is one mile shorter and team members split the legs as assigned:
- Leg 1 - 6 Miles
- Leg 2 - 5 Miles
- Leg 3 - 4 Miles
- Leg 4 - 3 Miles
- Leg 5 - 2 Miles
- Leg 6 - 1 Mile
The team captain registers and pays the team fee. Fee tiers are: Priority $200/team through December 31, 2025; Early $220/team January 1 to March 31; Open $240/team April 1 to September 12; Late $260/team after September 12. Event capacity is 150 teams. Team members join a registered team and do not pay a registration fee; a team password is required to join.
Team management notes: captains recruit teammates and may transfer the captain role to another person. Preliminary team rosters are due September 7, 2026; roster changes are allowed until race day, with a $25 fee for changes after September 20, 2026. Teams should have three members but may run with two. All runners must be at least 13 years old. Each team must maintain an average team pace of 12:00 minutes per mile or less; each member provides an estimated 5K pace at registration.
Course safety rules prohibit strollers and pets on the course; there is space at the start and finish for supervised children and pets to wait. On race day a team captain or team representative picks up the full team packet and the timing chip at Trailblazer Park. Prizes are awarded to the top three teams in each category.
