The bluegrass Speedway - "king of the flat"

Map of Bluegrass Classic Kentucky Marathon and Relay route with start, finish, and relay points.

This course was designed for speed and energy! The looped course experience optimizes elevation and spectator access to their runners as well.


As the course runs through some of Paducah's most notable neighborhoods, runners will also find a majority of the course has been recently paved with new asphalt. 


Marathon runners will do 4 loops, half marathon is 2 loops, and each relay runner will do 1 loop. Each lap is a little over 6.5 miles with approximately 40 feet in total elevation gain.


This course will be USATF certified


NOTE:  *THERE IS A 6 HOUR CUTOFF TIME FOR ALL DIVISIONS
