It is with great regret that we must cancel this year’s Illinois Valley Relay. To date we have received only a few entries. This would have necessitated cutbacks on transition workers, portapotties and other amenities that we feel would have been unacceptable. Those teams which have submitted entries will be receiving a refund in the near future.
We want to thank everyone who has participated in the Illinois Valley Relay over the years. We’ve had a great time putting on the race; we hope you’ve enjoyed it as much as we have.
Best wishes and Good Running,
The Race Directors

Brought together to run relay races, the members of the Cutting
Edge of Insanity became close friends who regularly met for Sunday
"biscuit and gravy runs", bike rides, and for just about
any other excuse we could come up with. One Sunday morning as we
sat talking after our run, someone mused that the roads around West
Central Illinois where we ran and biked would be a great place for
a relay.
