Runners follow a simple out-and-back course at Mableton’s Silver Comet Half Marathon, which starts near the Mable House Cultural Arts Center outdoor concert venue and finishes at the trailhead for the Silver Comet near Floyd Road. In between, runners file onto the paved former railroad trail — now a popular running, walking and biking trail — that stretches all the way to the Georgia-Alabama state line, running out about 5 miles and then back again to the finish line at the Bike Depot.
