About the Rose City Relays
The format here is relay racing on a track, so you show up with a team rather than a solo goal. The events range from short sprint combinations to longer distance legs, and one of them swaps the baton for something else entirely. The meet is hand-timed, and organizers suggest bringing a fifth teammate to run a backup watch.
Batons are provided at the track, so you do not need to bring one, though the organizers are fine with teams who want their own. The schedule moves quickly through the events, with each relay starting not long after the last.
