The Baltimore-Washington Athletic Club is recruiting runners to form a team for the inaugural Ragnar Relay Series scheduled for Sept. 26-27 on the C&O Canal Towpath. Participants do not need to be club members to join the team.
The non-stop race begins in Cumberland and ends in Washington, D.C. Teams consist of 12 runners — male, female or co-ed — and each runner completes three non-consecutive legs along the towpath. Each leg measures between 2.8 and 9.2 miles. Cumulative distances for each runner range between 12.7 and 18.9 miles
Entry fee before May 31 is $960, or $80 per athlete. The fee increases to $1,140, or $95 per runner, after that date. Each runner is responsible for his or her payment before the early entry deadline to be eligible for the lower fee.

Details can be obtained by e-mailing Kevin Spradlin, team coordinator, at cmacrunning@hotmail.com or by calling (240) 522-0276. The Baltimore-Washington Athletic Club, formerly the Central Maryland Athletic Club, is based in Carroll County and has runners throughout Maryland as well as New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
