Surprise!!! The last thing you want during a race (especially a marathon) is to be surprised. We train to keep the surprises to a minimum. Nutrition, hydration, even race clothes are all tested 100s of times before race day. Of course, we also train for elevation, endurance, and pace, but how can you make sure your training is perfectly suited to your race?
Novant Health Charlotte Marathon Preview Runs will make sure you are ready for race day by running on the actual marathon course! If you’ve run the streets, and done your training, the only surprise you’ll have on race day is how fast you get to the finish line!
Did we mention it’s FREE!?
