Spinx Run Fest

Pre-Race Review/ Lineup

The 2024 Spinx Run Fest Marathon will be held this Saturday, October 26.

20th Spinx Run Fest hits the road in downtown Greenville Oct. 26

nice, paved 'trail' for most of the course

Phenominal Course. Definetely laid out by runners

A great, small race with only a few negatives

Wonderfully executed, exciting, beautiful art.

Well-organized, fun race in a gorgeous city

Much improved course and start/finish location

Improved course, but poorly marked and marshaled

Amazing first marathon; highly recommended!!!

Traffic management and safety are a major concern

Great small-town marathon; a very fair course

Lots of potential; right now it's dangerous though
