Over 17,000 athletes will compete in the Penn Relays this weekend

The Penn Relays have begun at the Franklin Field in University City. More than 17,000 athletes will compete over the course of the next three days. The Relays are unique in that it is age-inclusive meaning any runners from youth to masters get to compete if qualified. The Penn Relays are the world’s oldest and largest track meet in the country.
