Course Information

The Red White and Blue 26.2 is a loop course around the Findlay Reservoir with a brief out-and-back section, run on very flat, scenic country roads with less than 20 feet of total elevation change for the full marathon course. Half marathoners will run a single loop, and those running the full marathon will complete the same loop course twice.

About Red, White and Blue 26.2

In 2010, the Findlay Family YMCA wanted to host a running event that would help the Y provide assistance to families and individuals in the community.  All of the proceeds from the Red White & Blue 26.2 Marathon will go to support the Findlay YMCA’s ‘Y Strong’ annual giving campaign.  The YMCA does not turn any individual or family away due to the inability to pay.  Scholarships are made possible for membership and/or programs through our Findlay YMCA’s Annual Giving Campaign.

In 2010 the Findlay Family YMCA gave financial assistance to over 2,251 individuals of Hancock County in excess of $260,000.
