Marathon

This course is both scenic and challenging and includes historic downtown, beautiful neighborhoods, paved trails, and rolling terrain with a few significant climbs and descents as well. This is certainly a finisher’s medal you’ll be proud to earn!

Half-Marathon

Starts along the marathon route, but turns off around mile 4.5 to go through several neighborhoods.  The route meets up with the marathon route for a couple of miles before turning off again.  The last few miles will be along the marathon route.   

Marathon Relay

The Marathon course is broken into 4 relay legs.  First leg is 6.5 miles long.  Second leg is 6.2 miles.  Third leg is 6.7 miles. Last leg is 6.8 miles.  These distances are approximate and may change slightly as we work on the logistics of setting up relay stations.
