Allianz Partners Richmond Marathon
This marathon starts and finishes in charming historic downtown Richmond. The scenic, fast loop course takes in all of the city's old neighborhoods, traveling up Monument Avenue, through the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University, then alongside the James River. Along with the typical water and sports drink stops, this is probably the only race in the country that offers junk food stops, at miles 16 and 22, stocked with Gummy Bears, cookies, and soda. There are also two wet-washcloth stations, at miles 17 and 23, perfect for cleaning up for your finish-line photo. Three party zones set up along the way with free food, prize giveaways, and noisemakers for spectators and family means lots of enthusiastic, cheering support. The last mile features a fast downhill to the finish on the city's historic riverfront, where there are plenty of postrace goodies, including bagels, fruit, beer and pizza, and a band to celebrate your finish. - a 26.2 mi running route in Richmond, Virginia
