The SMU Cox Corporate Relay Challenge, Presented by Behringer Harvard, is a full marathon distance 5-person relay for corporate teams. Any team with five people from the same company can participate in the SMU Cox Corporate Relay Challenge. All team members must be full-time employees of the same company, not employees for the day of the race only. There are no age or gender requirements or limits to the number of teams a company can enter. Teams can either run or walk the course (or a mixture of both) as long as they are able to complete the 26.2-mile course within the 6.5-hour time limit. Each runner or walker will cover between 4 and 6.2 miles, depending on his/her relay leg.

Runners, Walkers and Wheelchairs Participants Only
In accordance with the guidelines issued by USA Track & Field and Wheelchair Sports USA, only runners, walkers and wheelchair participants will be allowed on the course. The term “wheelchair,” as defined for this event, means push-rim wheelchairs only. In addition, guidelines for participants in wheelchairs state that all chairs must be equipped with brakes and participants must wear helmets.

Prohibited On Course...
The following are prohibited on the course: runners going backwards, jump ropes, animals (dogs, cats, birds or any other exotic or domestic pets!), bicycles, baby strollers, baby joggers, roller skates, in-line skates, skateboards and headset devices (MP3 players, iPods, etc). No wheeled vehicles are allowed other than wheelchairs. No exceptions. Please do not use cell phones during the race, as these can be hazardous.

In areas, only the side of the road runners are on will be closed to vehicular traffic. As such, it is imperative that you stay within the cones marking the course. Any deviations from the marked race course can result in a disqualification!

It is our intent to provide the safest possible race course. Those who participate in violation of these rules will be disqualified and removed from the course.

Foot runners and authorized vehicles have the right-of-way at all times. Wheelchair participants must yield the right-of-way to foot runners and to course vehicles.

Any assistance received from anyone other than an official aid station volunteer or other course official may result in a disqualification.

Note: As the year progresses and we draw nearer to our event date, information on this website will be updated regularly. Please check back periodically to ensure you have the most recent information.
