The race then proceeds to other important focal points of the city such as Patterson Park, Clifton Park, Lake Montebello, the Charles Village neighborhood and the western edge of downtown. After winding through of Baltimore, the race ends at virtually the same point at which it starts. The male and female winners of the 2012 race each won $25,000. Other races that take place are a half-marathon, team relay race, 5K race, and kids fun run. The competition was first held in 2001, but the city has featured marathon races prior to the current incarnation: the Maryland Marathon was held from 1973 to 1980 and this evolved into the Baltimore City Marathon, which was held from 1981 to 1989. ==Past winners== Key: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baltimore Marathon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
