Pittsburgh Marathon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pittsburgh Marathon was an annual 26.2 mile marathon throughout the City of Pittsburgh. It was last known as the UPMC/City of Pittsburgh Marathon and was last held in 2003. The course wound through the hilly topography of the city and usually started and ended at Point State Park in Downtown Pittsburgh. Numerous other city neighborhoods were along the route, including Oakland, Shadyside, East Liberty, Highland Park, Bloomfield, Lawrenceville, the Strip District, and the North Shore.

The race will start again in May 2009 after receiving corporate sponsorship from Dick's Sporting Goods.[1]
