About
The Charlotte Marathon takes place in Charlotte, North Carolina, with four race formats: a 5K road race, a half marathon (13.1 miles), and the full marathon (26.2 miles), run solo or as a team relay. The course winds through several of the city's public parks, alternating between urban energy and green space.
Charlotte itself is worth exploring afterward: the Levine Museum of the New South covers the region's post-Civil War history, the NoDa arts district is filled with public art, and the NASCAR Hall of Fame draws motorsports fans. The city also has several local breweries to visit once you have caught your breath.
