52nd Annual ORRRC Marathon
and
30th Annual ORRRC Half Marathon

NEW RACE LOCATION: New Xenia YMCA, 336 South Progress Dr Xenia OH 45385

Ohio’s best marathon is also the lowest cost, low-key marathon around. While we don’t offer stand-up mile markers, clocks at every mile, and large crowd support, what we do offer for the low pre-registration price of $35-$60 is an awesome tech shirt, a classy finishers medal, an accurate/road-marked/chip timed/certified/Boston-qualifier course, stocked aid stations, plenty of hot food and showers post-race, and THE GREATEST volunteers in the land.

Returning in 2019:

• Pre-race pasta dinner from 4-6 p.m. April 6 at the new Xenia YMCA. The dinner will be spaghetti, salad, and dessert for only $10.00 per person.
• Locker rooms & showers will be available on race day at the YMCA.
