Hudson Relays 2024
A HUGE congrats to the 2024 Hudson Relay Winners: Class of 2026! Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2024 Hudson Relays program!
Stay tuned for when we announce the return of Hudson Relays in 2025! 6 teams (all four classes, alumni and graduate students) will once again be fighting for the title of '25 Winners!
For the past 6 years, we have held a livestream of the race and have invited those around campus to join us for a watch party at the Jolly Scholar. Racers are able to come take a break in between the opening ceremony, their leg of the race, and the closing ceremony to come get refreshments and watch how their team is doing.
Here's how you can participate:
Contact your Class Officer President, the Alumni Relations department or if you are a graduate student contact your team captain.
The Oldest Programmed Campus Tradition
Beginning in 1910, the Hudson Relays was created to commemorate the campus move from Hudson, OH to Cleveland, OH. The Hudson Relays itself is a race amongst the classes the put each class's best runners to the test in a 26 mile relay around campus. As per tradition, if the same class wins all four years in a row, they are treated to a steak and champagne dinner, courtesy of the President and the Provost. To date, only three classes have ever achieved this goal! Will your class be next?
