The Boy Scout Half Marathon is back to normal. We'll again be offering three distances to satisfy everyone's ability and training goals. Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K. All events begin and finish at the Wood County Fairgrounds.
The half marathon enjoys a very flat route through the heart of a college downtown. This course scenery has it all -- Industrial, downtown, wooded bike paths, golf course neighborhood, and views of the BG Wind Farm all await you.
Water stops are staffed by our area scout troops in uniform who thank you for supporting them.
The post race refreshment zone, sponsored by Southeastern Container, offers chocolate milk, fresh fruit, and more.
