RACE INFO: Beach to Bay Relay is a 6-person relay from Port Aransas beach to Corpus Christi’s bay. Each leg will vary between 4-5 miles each. The race will start at 7 AM on May 21st. This race is open to all paces, we will be excited to take as many RAW runners as we can. We will run #HAF, then have a great time on the beach!

TEAMS: Do not worry too much about finding 6 runners for your team. Just reach out with your interest in joining, Rio will help align the teams to ensure we all have a leg to run! If you'd like to run with a specific group of friends, just let us know. We will do our best to coordinate.

RAW TRIP: We will plan to leave Austin by 11 AM on Friday to arrive in Corpus by 3 PM. For those that need to work the entire workday (non-WFH people), we can coordinate an early evening departure as well.

AFTER PARTY: We will have an afterparty ready with some help from UA on the tab! The details are TBD, but we will likely have a bar in the Port Aransas area to host this crew. We also plan on spending time on the beach as well following the race.

PLACES TO STAY: There are two options, either book your own hotel or book group AirBNBs. We can help coordinate the AirBNBs for those who request them. The beach houses can host 8-10 people each and currently rate at $700-1000 total for both nights. Most of the houses are close to each other. Ideally, we’d like to start booking houses by end of March.This is the form to fill out if you want to race with us.
