About the race

The Tidewater Strider Dismal Swamp 50K/Marathon/Half Marathon/50K Relay takes place in Chesapeake, Virginia. The event offers five options: Dismal Swamp 50K, Marathon, Half Marathon, 50K Relay, and a Half Marathon Walkers. The USATF-certified courses are described as fast: the 50K is four loops of a 3.88-mile out-and-back, while the Marathon uses two 13.1-mile loops and the Half Marathon is a single 13.1-mile loop.

Marathon and Half provide on-course water stations in addition to regular aid stops. Finishers earn a medal, with a 50K hoodie, marathon/Half long-sleeve shirts, and Boston-qualifier shirts; a beer garden and pizza cap the post-race atmosphere.
