Ohio Canal Corridor will be hosting the 20th annual Towpath Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K on Sunday, October 9, 2011 at 8:00 am in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
This event showcases some of the most beautiful segments of the historic Towpath Trail located between Akron and Cleveland. The Towpath Marathon is one of few marathons that take place in a national park, and many consider it a unique specialty race due to the setting and time of year in which it is run. All proceeds from the event benefit Ohio Canal Corridor, an organization that has been actively developing and participating in a variety of events and projects to preserve, promote and educate the public about the area surrounding one of Northeast Ohio’s most valuable resources – our park system along the Ohio Canal.
