Bootleg Marathon

This late-season race is ideal for runners aiming to achieve Boston Qualifying times or a peak half marathon performance. The certified out-and-back course utilizes the Oak Ridge Turnpike's bike lane/shoulder, with less than 600ft total elevation gain. Approximately 90% of runners consistently achieve their goals. Be prepared for potential traffic and running in dark conditions for part of the event. The Bootleg Marathon provides no shirts, awards, or amenities. Runners must bring their own support; pacers are permitted. This race is intended for experienced runners focused strictly on qualifying, not for first-timers or those seeking a large crowd.
