If there’s one thing you can say for sure about the Warm Up Columbus Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K or 5K races, it’s this — you’ll get to know the course.

That’s because participants run a roughly one-mile loop course over and over (13 times for runners in the half-marathon), making it an ideal race for relay teams of two, three, four or even five runners.

Set in Dublin, a northwestern suburb of the Columbus metro area, the race starts and finishes in the shadow of nearby Interstate 270. The starting line lies along Metro Place North, just a stone’s throw from the nearby Crowne Plaza Hotel at 600 Metro North Place, where race organizers recommend participants stay thanks to its close proximity to the start line and the race course. From there, the course follows a simple, counter-clockwise loop route around Metro Place North and Metro Place South, and along the service road that parallels Frantz Road. Thanks to its uniquely tight loop course around the Metro Place streets, the Last Chance race is probably one of the flattest races you’ll ever run, as there’s an elevation change of just 4 feet over the course of the entire race.
