The folks putting together this run are so great! This race feels very supportive and they really do celebrate the slow runners. You look around a neighborhood and there are lots of sweet neighborhood cats that wander up to you and you can feed them. Very sweet!!

This race features 20 loops around a quiet, scenic neighborhood with rolling hills. Informal and very supportive atmosphere. I am a back-of-the-pack racer and I felt accepted, not judged — which really means a lot to me. A few neighbors along the course were cheering us on, which added to the fun. Plenty of snacks (a nice variety) and drinks were offered. I would have preferred a tech shirt instead of cotton. I drove nearly 4 hours to do this race and I’d happily do it again.

I run about 10 marathons and this one is my favorite. It’s a fairly easy 20 loops (a little more than a mile) in a quiet neighborhood, although towards the end you begin to feel those small inclines. The aid station is fantastic (big shout-out for tailwind, PBJ , and pizza.) It’s a small field and for those like myself who are speed impaired, a lot of encouragement. Toe it’s less of a race than a gathering of friends, old and new. Also, this may be the only race that provides cat treats for those that want them to feed some of the feline spectators. Great fun.

The field is small, but it’s a loop, which means you can find company or solitude at almost any point in the race. The race directors do a wonderful job of promoting the race to bring people who just enjoy pushing themselves to complete the marathon distance. It is a unique type of race, and one I hope to run every year.

Nice laid back event. Mostly pavement course; except “Pot Hole from Hell 100 yards” section. First half mile is almost all downhill.. except the Pot Hole section. Great RD team. Aid station had the necessities. Small attendance, so parking was easy. Great for training; easy for relaxing journey.

This is a low-key, but high-fun event. It consists of a 1.3 mile loop run in a very quiet neighborhood in Greer, S.C. it is aimed for slower runners, but you will see some people that have accomplished a great body of work in their running careers. There are also some faster runners….so this race is for everyone. The loops is easy to learn, but not boring, there is something new happening every loop. You will love the directors and the people that come to do this race. Great value for the entry fee!

My best friend found this race on Running in the USA. A little back story, my best friend and I are 5k walkers, so when she found 2slow4boston MARATHON I thought she was bat s*** crazy. There was no way I was going to even attempt a marathon. With a little time and convincing I signed up. This race was fantastic. Everyone was so kind and encouraging. I loved doing laps. I was even able to walk one of the volunteer’s dog a few laps!! My feet told me I was done and I only made it to 18.34 miles, but it has lit a fire to try again! Thanks for a great race, that caters to the turtles and sloths just like myself!!

I love the idea of a race where speed isn’t important, everyone is friendly and the runners are well taken care of the entire time. This is the marathon that meets all of that criteria. Adamy, the RD, went above and beyond with this event and how well she prepared under COVID restrictions. I had a slow time, but that was all me because of a small injury but I had fun. Thank you Adamy!

The directors know how to take care of their runners! Although it was a 1.05 mile loop that we did 25 times….. they were there to cheer us on at each and every single lap. Those laps meant we had a port-o-potty at each mile and a significant aid station! The aid station had everything from chips and cookies to gels and tailwind, water and sodas, and real food! Around 10 a.m. they brought out wraps and took our pizza orders! They even considered special diets including vegan and gluten free! For swag, we received a cooling towel, sticker, and mug – I wish we would have gotten a shirt though. I would have paid extra for it too. The medal is great, and I have no complaints there either. Parking was easy, and we could access our cars if we needed to without leaving the course. The goal of this marathon was the be the slowest, and I have to hand it to the winners. I cannot imagine being on my feet for that long, much of it in the rain!

A race that celebrates middle of the pack to back runners, and rewards the last finisher. If you’re looking for a race that each runner encourages others look no further. The race director, volunteers were incredible. The food options and selections were greater than an ultra. Open course but had only cars the entire time I was on the course. This will be a yearly can’t miss event for me.
