FAQ
IS THIS A CERTIFIED COURSE?
The Marathon is a USATF certified course! The Half Marathon is not yet certified. Is there a cut-off time? There is an 8-hour cut-off time for the marathon. We will have a timing mat at 13.1 which will have a 4-hour cut-off. The cut-off time for the Half Marathon is 5 hours. What time does the race start? Marathon race start is 8:00 AM. Will there be finisher's medals? Yes! There are finisher’s medals for all finishers. Is there a packet pickup and where? 309 8th Street, Marlinton, WV. The Rivertown / CJ Richardson Building. From 4:30 - 7:00 on Saturday before the race. Is there a pre-race meal? There is no pre-race meal for 2026. Will there be a bag drop? Yes, there will be a bag drop prior to the race. Are trail shoes or road shoes recommended? Either shoe would be fine depending on your comfort-level in either. The surface is mostly packed gravel with some softer sections throughout the middle of the trail in most places. So, trail shoes would be comfortable enough and provide a little bit of grip if there is lots of rain leading up to race day. However, racing flats / road shoes are also okay as most is packed and the last two miles are paved with a gravel road finish (last 1/2 mile).
