The 13th annual County Marathon runs Sunday, Oct. 2. The event features individual, full or half marathon as well as the relay challenge for the chosen charity, the Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation.
The race is a Boston qualifier and is sanctioned by Athletics Canada. Described as “flat and fast” by national level coach Peter Pimm, racers can also expect a warm welcome from the County residents along the fully closed course down the roads connecting Wellington, Bloomfield and Picton. Pimm is also the County Marathon’s official route advisor.
The final two kilometres of the certified race route have changed due to construction downtown Picton. The new finish line is located on Gladstone Ave, located just north west of ‘regular’ finish line.
ROAD CLOSURE: As explained in the maps below and on the website, road closures are rolling and begin in Wellington and end in Picton.
