We’re excited to reveal one of our newest race day photo ops — a collage of 2026 relay team names arranged in the shape of Griffith Park. Stop by on race day, find your team name, grab a photo with your crew, and celebrate being part of this year’s relay.

And captains, we didn’t forget about you.

Every Griffith Park Trail Marathon Relay team captain will receive an exclusive Relay Captain slider as a small thank-you for rallying the crew, organizing the details, and leading the team to race day.

Wear it proudly, snap a photo, and let everyone know who made it happen.
