About
Original Propaganda Athletic Club (O.P.A.C.) Relays is back! Our signature unsanctioned road relay race celebrates the energy, legacy, and cultural impact of Penn Relays, the oldest and largest track & field competition in the United States. The 2026 edition, O.P.A.C. Relays VIII, is powered by lululemon.
For the first time ever, O.P.A.C. Relays will honor up to four team winners this year – the Overall Winner, the top Team Led by Women, the top Team Led by Men, and the top Non-Binary Inclusive Team – creating more space for representation and inclusion.
<Teams can only win once>
Each team will compete in one 4 x 400ish relay heat for a chance to advance to The Finals. After The Finals, winning teams will be announced.
All winning teams will receive equal prizes; all attendees can enjoy an Open Bar and Swag Bags while supplies last. The Experience will begin and end with a happy hour at the iconic New Deck Tavern.
Come celebrate community, competition, and culture with us!
