With a new, USATF-certified route for 2010, the Earth Day Marathon and Half Marathon will start and end at the Kenyon Athletic Center on the campus of Kenyon College. Participants will complete a 4 mile loop through historic Gambier with a portion run on Kenyon's tree-lined Middle Path. Upon completing the Gambier loop, runners and walkers will head to the picturesque Kokosing Gap Bike Trail for the remainder of the race.The course is mostly flat, with one hill at about ½ mile. Gambier is a great location for spectators, with good viewing throughout the village.
