Lace up your running shoes and get ready to experience world-class racing at the Akron Marathon Race Series. You can choose to run the whole marathon, a half marathon or be part of a team relay. The path winds through many diverse neighborhoods and past historical landmarks. This USATF sanctioned course may even qualify you for the Boston Marathon.
Stretching beside the Ohio & Erie Canal, the Towpath Trail winds and climbs through four distinct areas: Akron, Barberton, PPG Industries and Clinton. Use the open 21.5-mile recreation pathway to walk, jog, run, hike or bike while taking in the gorgeous sights. Fishing and camping are also allowed along the trail, as well as cross-country skiing during the snowy months.
