Walkers
The 2008 Nationwide Better Health Columbus Marathon and ½ Marathon appreciates the support received by walkers from our past races. The walkers are an important segment of the Marathon whose input we value. Accordingly, we are going to take steps that will improve the experience of those who enter the walking division.
Beginning with this year’s event, walkers will have their own division with the following upgrades:
- Walkers will start at 7:30 with the runners so that everyone, walkers and runners, will share in the thrill of the start;
- Walkers will be distinguished from runners by having different bib colors;
- Walkers will enjoy the same age group divisions as the runners with commensurate awards given;
- Walkers will have pace teams to facilitate attaining individual goals;
- Walkers will have their results listed separately from those of the runners.
Join us on October 19, 2008 and experience why the Nationwide Better Health Columbus Marathon and ½ Marathon is one of the best walker-friendly events in the country.
