What is the Flying Pig Marathon?
The Flying Pig Marathon has the kind of identity many city marathons wish they had. It is playful, crowd-forward, and unmistakably local, while still feeling like a major goal race for runners who take the full distance seriously.
Flying Pig Marathon course route
The marathon runs through Cincinnati on a course that is more honest than a simple elevation summary suggests. The hills are part of the race's character, and so are the neighborhood energy, themed support, and the sense that the whole weekend has its own voice.
Weather for the Flying Pig Marathon
Early May in Cincinnati is often good marathon weather at the gun, but humidity and sun can matter by the late miles. The terrain magnifies pacing mistakes, so even a cool morning does not automatically make this an easy effort.
