Held a P3R Headquarters, this event is for all runners — whether you're a longtime marathoner or training for the first time.

A five-mile option will also be available for those following the Galloway Training Plan. Plus, this FREE event will also feature post-race refreshments, a pop-up P3R Gear Store, and more!

The first 500 registered participants to check-in will receive a goody bag with items from UPMC Health Plan, Blue Buffalo, Honey Stinger, NuGo Nutrition and Chick-Fil-A.
