About this race

Join us at "Ohio's Longest-Standing Marathon" - the full marathon started in 1968 and has started in historic "Uptown" Athens ever since. Our Half Marathon has run since 1994.  The race starts at the corner of South College and East Union streets, adjacent to Ohio University's College Green on the brick streets Athens is known for.  Both races enter the flat and scenic Hockhocking Adena Bikeway just 1.5 miles in, before turning around and finishing on Ohio University's track at Pruitt Field. Both courses are USATF certified and well-marked; the Full Marathon is a Boston Qualifier Race!
