We pride ourselves on giving our runners an extraordinary experience with a weekend full of fun events. The marathon and half marathon are open to hand cyclists, runners, and walkers. In Albany, Georgia you will enjoy a flat, spectator-friendly course. All runners for both races have 7 hours to complete their race. At the 7-hour point, you will be asked by the race director or official to exit the race course.
Our race has aid stations approximately every two miles. Every aid station is stocked with Combos(R), Aquafina water and Lemon-Lime Gatorade, as the mileage increases bananas, oranges, and GU gels will be provided. The runner's hospitality tent at the finish line offers Combos(R), Aquafina water, Lemon-Lime Gatorade, and Publix provides fruit, muffins, and a variety of bagels.
Join us for the Downtown Street Festival starting at Noon, they will have live music, food vendors, and kids' activities.
