The Veradigm Tobacco Road Full Marathon features over 20 miles of the American Tobacco Trail (ATT). The rest of the course is flat and fast with a downhill finish. Up to 20 percent (in 2017; 15 percent in 2021) of our runners qualify for the legendary Boston Marathon! Less experienced runners benefit too as the fast, flat, energy-absorbing course and ideal temperatures averaging in the 40s and 50s Fahrenheit make it a great venue for your next personal record.
