😄 Why We Like This Run
✅ Scenic course on the Riverfront
✅ Distance for every runner: Marathon to 5K
✅ Historically 10%-12% of marathoners have BQ'd
Runners enjoy the best of Wilmington, from the majestic views along the riverfront and through downtown. The marathon is challenging, yet BQ-enabling and includes the scenic Jack Markell Trail. The half covers the first 13 miles of the full marathon course and the 5K and 10K on the same day amplifies the race day buzz!
