Common Goals:

Picture this: a perfect place, a perfect pace, a perfect race…Knowing a downhill marathon is about speed, and that it’s going to be a fast run, I still encourage you to take the time to look around and savor the unique beauty only a Black Hills of South Dakota Marathon can provide. This course has proven a spiritual journey for me and I hope when you cross that finish line you feel the same way! Source
