RACE TO THE RUNWAY
Nearly 1,400 runners crossed the finish line in January's Race to the Runway Buckeye Marathon on the mostly downhill racecourse. Marathon participants began in Verrado and ended at the Buckeye Municipal Airport. Organizers said this year’s event had the largest turnout in the race’s 12-year history. Several events allowed runners to compete in a full marathon, half marathon, 10K or 5K run, as well as a one mile fun run. The full marathon, 26.2 miles, was a qualifying event for the Boston Marathon, which means runners who finished the course in under about 3 hours, depending on age and gender, may qualify to run in the Boston Marathon in April.
