Course Description

Typically cool race day weather and a downhill course make the Redding Marathon a fast possible BQ and PR course. The course is now all paved walking/biking trails.

The marathon starts at Shasta Dam Visitors’ Center parking lot with a quick descent for the first 3-4 miles. Miles 5 to about halfway are flat and then rolling. After ~mile 14 it is relatively flat until the great finish at Sundial Bridge. The course has been updated for 2012.
