The marathon starts at Shepherd University, drops to the C&O Canal towpath for an out and back, then runs the length of Millers Sawmill Road before following a historic route through Antietam National Battlefield. You finish at Ram Stadium. The surface mixes grass, crushed gravel and road. Expect over 1,000 feet of climbing, a steep hill out of the canal and a steep descent back down, and grassy sections can turn slick in wet weather.
