Oak Ridge to Boston Qualifier

The race is intended for runners seeking to qualify for the Boston Marathon or achieve a personal record in a Half Marathon. The event features a no-frills, low-key atmosphere with no shirts, awards, or amenities offered. Participants will compete on a certified course with expected traffic interaction, highlighted by portions of running in the dark. Aid stations are placed strategically along the route. The marathon is an out-and-back, while the half marathon is a point-to-point course, and both provide a gentle elevation gain. Safety measures require bright clothing and the use of strobe lights until sunrise.
