The expansion is anticipated to allow an increase of more than 5,000 runners from previous records. “Over the past 10 years, the Ragnar Relay Wasatch Back event has become a can’t miss race for runners throughout Utah,” said Tanner Bell, co-founder of Ragnar Relay in 2004. “We’ve seen it grow from a small race with a bunch of friends to tens of thousands of people from around the world coming to Utah to experience their own running pilgrimage. With our tenth anniversary, we wanted to allow more people to experience what makes Ragnar such a unique team event, and expanding to a double day relay will allow us to do so without overcrowding the course.” Registration is now available online at www.ragnarrelay.com/race/wasatchback/registration and filling quickly. Ragnar Relay Series continues to be one of the fastest growing team endurance experiences in the world.
