The Chickamauga Battlefield Marathon is a scenic and varied course known for it’s ample sightings of wildlife and historical monuments equally suited to first marathoners and those chasing a Boston Qualifying time.
The slightly rolling, paved hills of the course provide a welcome shift in muscular focus for runners without additional strain of consistent climbing or neutral terrain.
With a consistent, yet uncrowded, field (no fighting for space here!), the course through the 9,000-acre battlefield has a long history of BQs and turning everyday runners into MARATHONERS.
In fact, we celebrate more than 100 first timers each year!
