Lace up your shoes for the Appalachian Series - Day 2 (GA), an inviting event hosted by Mainly Marathons on March 21, 2026, in Macon, Georgia. This race offers a welcoming atmosphere for all paces, providing marathon (26.2M) and half marathon (13.1M) distances, among others, with a generous "no runner left behind" policy and no time limits.
The course, situated at Amerson River Park, features a wide, paved asphalt path, making for a generally flat and fast running experience. While largely flat, the multi-loop design includes a modest 43 feet of elevation gain per lap, adding a subtle challenge to each circuit. Runners can expect scenic views and a tranquil environment, perfect for enjoying the camaraderie of this inclusive running community. Aid stations are a standout feature, renowned for their "giant" spread of refreshments, including fruit, sandwiches, water, and hot coffee, ensuring you stay fueled throughout your race.
As part of the unique Appalachian Series, which traverses multiple states, this event is ideal for those seeking to accumulate races or simply enjoy a well-supported day on the course. Typical race day conditions in late March boast comfortable highs around 72°F and lows near 46°F, with only a 12% chance of precipitation, providing excellent running weather. Finishers of races longer than a half marathon are celebrated with custom metal-stamped nameplates, a special memento from a truly supportive and memorable event.
