Oak Ridge Qualifier: Half and Full Marathon

Gear up for the ultimate running challenge this September! A race limited to 50 runners, it's your shot at a Boston Marathon qualifier or a personal record in the half marathon, with a stunning 90% of our runners historically hitting their targets. The early 5:30 am start is our trick to outrun the heat. Take this serious call to action: only join if you're set to smash your age group standard! Our no-frills, low-key event is all about pure performance - no shirts, no awards, just you, the clock, and the open road (which you'll share with some traffic, so no headphones allowed). With a dark start and a need for visibility, safety is key. Be self-sufficient with support, and hydrate at designated water stops along the certified courses. Whether it's the full or half marathon, embrace the challenge of minimal elevation and seize the opportunity to qualify. Go the distance, push your limits, and etch your name amongst the elites!
