This year’s Modesto Marathon has seen major changes in the course.
One of the reasons for the change is to create more of a festival atmosphere at the finish line.
In past year’s, the race started and finished at the same place. Due to how confined that area is, it forced us to put the entertainment, food and other services away from the finish line.
That all changes for the 2013 race.
We’ve moved the finish line to a wide open area a couple blocks away from the start. Now, you can cheer on your favorite runners while listening to our great line-up of entertainment.
Even more reason to bring the entire family to support the runner in your life.

Sunday will be my first Marathon, and I’m so very impressed with what you have put together. Your support (Shadow Chase), your volunteers, your Web site, your sponsors, your enthusiasm, your organization, EVERYTHING is terrific!!!! I’m one month short of my 66th birthday, and I’m not 100% certain I can complete the entire Marathon, but I’m proud to participate in an event that is so superbly organized, publicized, and supported. What a WONDERFUL gift you’ve given to Modesto, our community. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
