RegisterDecatur's first ever marathon, and on a micro-marathon course! We are excited to host the first full distance marathon on a course that is fast and USATF certified. We will also host a 10K and 5K event on the same day on flat, fast race courses. All net proceeds from this event go to the Decatur High School Track and Field team to support their upcoming race season.
The marathon will be a loop and athletes will run multiple loops of the course that runs through Point Mallard Park. Course maps and USATF Certification will be posted on the website shortly. There will be a 6 hour time limit with a cutoff occurring for anyone that is not through the halfway by the 3 hour mark, or 11 AM.
Age group and overall awards will be available for the marathon, 10K and 5K, and the USATF certification and the course meeting B.A.A. standards will allow athletes to qualify for Boston, Chicago or New York Marathons. All marathon finishers will receive a finishers medal as well.
