The Experience
The Scouting America Half Marathon and 5K is the perfect tune up race for your fall racing. Ideally situated just a few weeks before the Garmin Marathon Series in Toledo, this is a great way to test your nutrition and pace. The half marathon enjoys a very flat route through the heart of a college downtown. This course scenery has it all -- Industrial, downtown, wooded bike paths, golf course neighborhood, and City Park. Water stops are staffed by our area scout troops in uniform who thank you for supporting them. The post race refreshment zone, sponsored by Southeastern Container, offers chocolate milk, fresh fruit, and more. Finally, Scout Troops serve up a pancake breakfast for all, included with your registration.
