Tour de Course
Let us take you on an 8-week virtual tour of Pittsburgh!
On the Pittsburgh Marathon course, participants MOVE through 14 unique Pittsburgh neighborhoods on their 26.2-mile journey. Through our Tour de Course, you’ll MOVE 3-5 times a week for 8 weeks to complete challenges related to things you’d see along the marathon course while learning fun facts about Pittsburgh along the way. When you finish the Tour, you’ll earn a new branded running vest (retail value of $60) plus a surprise bag of MOVING goodies (retail value of $50+)!
Each week for 8 weeks, you’ll receive an email with new challenges featuring one or two of the 14 course neighborhoods. You can complete your challenges at home or out and about with friends - there are no set rules for how you complete each challenge. Track your progress by logging into Race Roster and sharing your accomplishments with your fellow challengers (although this is not required!). You can start and finish the challenge whenever you like! If you're registered by March 15, you'll receive your finisher's prize by April 15. If you register after March 15, you'll receive your gear by June 1.
The tour begins on Monday, March 13 (although you can begin and complete your own tour whenever you like)!
