NEW COURSE FOR 2013
We are currently in the process of mapping out a new course for the 2013 race. In post race discussions with race staff, runners and the Plymouth Police it was decided that the later miles of the race should be moved to lower traffic roads. Our primary concern is to keep the runners safe. You will still be running the first 15-16 miles within the State Forest. This will eliminate some of those mid-course hills and will add in some more dirt roads. This does NOT mean that the course is flat and we encourage anyone that can get to the area to do some training on the course. We will be working on the final course details over the next couple of months and will make updates as we have them. The new course will be a certified Boston Marathon Qualifier.
What we do know right now: the starting area will remain the same at College Pond and the finish line will be moved to Plymouth North High School at 41 Obery Street. This will give us alot more space to spread out at the finish and give the runners a spectacular track finish at the recently completed high school.

PARKING REMINDER: If you are registered for the full marathon there is no race day parking at the starting line at College Pond. All participants for the full marathon must take the shuttles from the finish area or be dropped off at College Pond by a non-participant. Relay participants and spectators can park at College Pond for the start of the race only. The College Pond lot will only be open until 8:30 am on race day.

The 2013 Myles Standish Marathon and Marathon Relay will begin at College Pond at DCR Myles Standish State Forest. The first 15 miles of the course will take place within the State Forest on all paved, low traffic roads. You will pass ponds and campgrounds as you wind your way through the forest. The course will then take you through the back roads of Plymouth, past cranberry bogs and farms. Stay tuned for course updates for the 2013 race.

The Myles Standish Marathon and Marathon Relay are brought to Plymouth by Bayside Runner and South Shore Race Management. The first full marathon to be held in Plymouth, we look forward to an outstanding event. We're excited about the initial response we've received from local runners and the town. The course is shaping up nicely with mostly low traffic roads and a mix of hills, pavement and dirt roads to make it a challenging, enjoyable event.
Additional information will be posted to the website and details are finalized. This will include course maps, relay maps along with distances and exchange locations, local hotel information for anyone visiting from out of town, sponsorship and volunteer information, parking and shuttles and much more.
