Railway Marathon

· Fultondale, United StatesUpcoming

Railway Marathon is a marathon and half marathon event held in Fultondale, US, in February. The programme is broad, with a 50K, a marathon, a half marathon, a 10K, a 5K and a one-mile fun run, plus a virtual 5K for people who prefer to run elsewhere.

Racing is based at Black Creek Park, close to Birmingham, Alabama. The route uses the Five Mile Creek Greenway, a converted railway corridor that links Fultondale with Gardendale and Brookside. The surface is described as relatively flat and quick, which suits runners chasing a personal best.

The event supports Unless U, a charity that offers education and job training to adults with special needs.
