Courses de Half Marathon près de Whiteford Township

Spooky Sprint - Ann Arbor takes place in October at Kensington Metropark, featuring a half marathon, 10K, 5K, untimed 1-mile, kids' dash, and a virtual option. Bodies Race Company presents this event as part of its Holiday Series, designed for runners aiming for a personal best and families seeking a costume-welcoming fall activity. The longer races use chip timing with live results, while the 1-mile and kids' dash offer a relaxed pace. The half marathon begins in the morning, following park roads shaded by trees and paved trails around Maple Beach. The course has a fast, gently rolling terrain, avoiding steep hills. Costumes are welcome, and finishers will receive Halloween treats. Early registrants get race merchandise, including a custom bib, a designer shirt, and a medal. The kids' dash is open to children aged 10 and under, with a free option that does not include merchandise. Youth pricing is available for the 5K and 10K, making the shorter distances more accessible for families.

Turkey Trails-Toledo is a Thanksgiving morning 5K race and walk held at the Eastern Community YMCA on Pickle Road in Oregon, Ohio, near Toledo. The in-person 5K begins at 9am. Race-day registration and packet pickup are available starting at 7:30am. A virtual option is offered for those who wish to receive the shirt and support the YMCA Scholarship Fund without participating on-site. The course begins and ends at the YMCA, following a quick road route through city streets, with a water station provided. Runners can contend for overall, masters, grand masters, and age-group awards, while the walk remains non-competitive.

The Mercy Health Glass City Marathon is a spring marathon in Toledo, Ohio, run on a fast, flat 26.2-mile course organized by the Toledo Roadrunners Club. It draws a marathon field of up to 2,000 runners and is built for speed: it regularly ranks among the top 25 fastest marathons, and more than a third of the field runs a Boston Marathon qualifying time. The weekend also offers shorter races, with the Owens Corning Half Marathon, the Savage 5K, and the North Star BlueScope 5-Person Marathon Relay sharing the broader Glass City setup. The marathon and half marathon start on the University of Toledo campus and finish inside Glass Bowl Stadium, giving the race a clear college-campus anchor rather than a generic downtown finish. The half marathon covers 13.1 miles with about 3,000 runners, while the Savage 5K starts by the Clock Tower and ends on the stadium field with more than 1,000 finishers. The full marathon’s speed record is not just marketing: the race has produced the fourth-fastest American marathon, the fastest American marathon debut, the fastest marathon run in Ohio, and Olympic Marathon Trials qualifying performances.
