If you’re running in it, you probably already knew that the inaugural Providence Marathon (officially the Cox Providence Rhode Races) is Sunday, May 4. But for everyone else, get out there and support Rhode Island runners!

The course begins at the Johnson and Wales Harborside Campus in Cranston (rain or shine), and winds its way through the East Side, Pawtucket, and East Providence before finishing 26.218 miles later in Downtown.

And to those who will be running: just be careful when you cross that line:

  1. Way to bury the real story here, Adam!

    Try not to fall this time like you did in Chicago, okay?

  2. I’m running in this too. I’ll make sure to wear my finish-line-slip-proof shoes.
