Birch Bay Ghost Marathon
Saturday, December 10th, 2011
The Birch Bay Marathon and 15.1 mile option will start at 9:00am and finish at 2:00pm on Saturday, December 10th, 2011 from Birch Bay State Park. The weather should be terrible so please plan accordingly! Beware of ice on the roads and drive carefully.
An 8:00 start is available for those who plan on taking 5 or more hours. It does cause us aid issues so plan on carrying your own until mobile aid finds you on the loop.
Birch Bay Ghost Marathon is a frying pan loop where you run the handle out and two loops before returning to the start/finish. The distance is not certified but very close. Please note the half is 15.1 miles due to the loop nature of the course.
There will be one fixed and one roving aid station. The start/finish line will be abandoned until the leader of the 15.1 mile option heads back. There is a major intersection at Harborview / Birch Bay Dr you pass twice before heading home.
