Columbus Marathon : ウィキペディア英語版 | Columbus Marathon The Nationwide Children's Hospital Columbus Marathon, first run in 1980, features a flat, fast course which saw nearly 20 percent of finishers qualify for the Boston Marathon in 2010. The event has sold-out in mid-August the past eight years. There are 7,000 runners in the full marathon and 11,000 in the half marathon, making it one of the largest running events in the United States. For the third straight year, Nationwide Children's Hospital is the beneficiary of the event. More than $2 million has been raised since 2012. ==History== The concept of the Columbus Marathon was the brainchild of former Mayors Tom Moody and Greg Lashutka as a way to put Columbus on the map and showcase the city at the same time. The inaugural race, on November 16, 1980, hosted 2,500 runners. Tommy Persson of Sweden set a course record of 2:11:02 that remains unbroken to this day.
