This was my 1st time running the MC Marathon, and it was a phenomenal experience. From packet pick up to finisher pictures, this was one of the highly organized races I ran to date . The motivation along the run was the most inspirational and inspiring to keep me focused

The race benefits the Alternative House of Lowell, an agency dedicated to help victims of domestic violence.

Price for 5K or 10K is very reasonable, you get a very nice T-Shirt if you are one of the first 500 to register and everybody gets a frozen apple pie at the end.

On mile

"The course is great, though the last 2 miles have a lot of concrete which is hard to run on especially after running for 11 miles before. A couple more aid stations would be better, definitely were not enough especially second half which is hotter and some uphill.
