Welcome from IAAF President
Dr Primo Nebiolo

The last edition of the IAAF World Road Relay World Championships was held in a snow-covered Copenhagen in April 1996. This 4th edition will be held against the beautiful background of the Amazonian landscape in the historical city of Manaus.

Our athletes and spectators will be able to enjoy all of the warmth and excitement of Brazil, and we hope that all of you who are unable to be with us in Manaus will nonetheless experience some of the thrills of this event through our coverage, here on this special web site.
