The Marathon Relay Course
Do you want to participate in the TBK Bank Quad Cities Marathon but prefer a shorter distance? Recruit your team of five runners and make it a team effort. It is fun and easy!
We shuttle you to your transition area and then back to the finish area once you complete your leg. The Relay Regroup Area is positioned about a block before the finish line for those relay teams wishing to cross the finish line together (and get that iconic group finish line photo)! Every team member will receive a finisher's medal.
Each mile for each relay leg is marked and visibly labeled for the relay teams. The five relay legs are as follows:
1st Leg - Starting Line to Moline River Drive near Western IL University (6.1 mi)
2nd Leg - Moline River Drive across from WIU over I-74 bridge to Lincoln Way in Bettendorf near Pizza Ranch (3.8 mi)
3rd Leg - Lincoln Way in Bettendorf near Pizza Ranch to Lindsay Park Yacht Club on the Davenport riverfront (5.2 mi)
4th Leg - Lindsay Park Yacht Club on Davenport riverfront to Arsenal Island (5.6 mi)
5th Leg - Arsenal Island by Old Country Club to finish line (5.5 mi)
The Quad Cities Marathon Relay is brought to you by Rock Valley Physical Therapy.
