Veterans Marathon Reviews


Veterans Marathon
2.5 Stars from 2 Runners





  Cute race

By about 2017


Review

It was really well organized, and the volunteers were very friendly. It is held in Columbia City, IN, and it was 24 degrees the day I ran it. It was disappointing that there was no place to wait inside and stay warm prior to the start. A little coffee shop was open, so I waited there. I feel that the town should support the race a little bit more.


Race Tips

The course is 2 loops on rural roads. It is rolling hills. The first loop I felt fine, but I did think to myself that some of the hills would be difficult the second time around as fatigue set in. I was right!


Logistical Tips (Hotels, Restaurants, Parking, Discounts, etc.)

I drove in for the race, so no hotel review, and as I said most businesses were closed. It’s easy to find parking close to the start, so no issue there. I went back to the coffee shop after the race since I felt very cold. The coffee was excellent! It’s a cute race, and I had run out of options for a fall race, so I decided to try it. I think the cold weather really impacted me more than the hills. I would definitely consider it again as a late fall option.

Review

Pros: start/finish at cute, small town square

Cons: I did not see another runner from mile 13.1-17 and was running in very rural areas. It was a bit creepy.
