About the Valentine Marathon
The Valentine Marathon starts and finishes at Bolo Beer Co. on East 1st Street in Valentine, Nebraska. Most of the course runs on the packed-earth Cowboy Trail, with paved stretches through town and a wood-decked bridge crossing. Race weekend also includes a 52K ultra, marathon relay, half marathon, 10K, 5K, and 1 mile, with a six-hour marathon cutoff. For every mile completed, $1 goes to the Valentine Community Schools Foundation.
