Course and logistics
The course is a certified 1-mile loop (USATF certification code OH24004JHP) used for all distances. Each measured lap equals one mile; the marathon uses repeated laps to reach marathon distance. The race provides 26 fluid/support stations with water and Gatorade and restrooms at every mile. Additional services include event shirts, custom finisher medals, post-race refreshments, music on course, athlete tracking, and pacing support from a Fleet Feet pace team with walkers and pacers covering a range of target paces. Relay teams may consist of 2 to 5 members, with each team deciding member distances. Early packet pickup is available at a local Fleet Feet store in central Ohio; on-site packet pickup is also offered on race day. The marathon is subject to a city permit time limit and requires marathon participants to attend a pre-race meeting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
