There's a new event for runners in next year's Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon.

In 2013, the marathon is adding a two-person relay. It covers the same route at the same time as the marathon, but two people will split up the 26.2 mile race into two 13.1 mile legs.

There will be different divisions, like father/son and mother/daughter.

Next year's race is set for April 7.

You can register online at the marathon's website beginning Wednesday.
