Race Info
The River City Micro Marathon is held each January at Point Mallard Park in Decatur, Alabama, near the Tennessee River. The marathon is run as six laps of a USATF-certified 7.03 km loop through the park, with aid stations about 2 and 4 miles into each lap and a 6-hour time limit. A 10K, a 5K and a marathon relay start the same morning, and net proceeds go to the Decatur High School track and field team.
