overpass turbo : how to query all the ways in a relation

I'm trying to query the Great Lakes in overpass using the id (https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1124369)...is this plausible?

Here is what I have so far.

[out:json][timeout:2500];

(   relation["name"="Great Lakes"][ref=1124369];   way(r);   node(w); );

out skel qt;

One Answer:

To query by OSM id, do something like rel(1124369);

Once you have that object you need to use the recurse down relations operator:

[out:json][timeout:25];
rel(1124369);
(._;>>;);
out;

It's about 90 megabytes of data.
