Victory Marathon

The Victory Marathon, Half Marathon, and 5K take place annually at Vermillion Rise Mega Park in Hillsdale, Indiana. This unique event features a USATF certified Boston Qualifier course set on the grounds of a former secret military munitions compound with historic WWII and mid-20th-century military sites. Runners race on paved roads passing old outposts, TNT manufacturing buildings, nerve gas storage, and shooting ranges.

The half marathon and 5K are single-loop courses, while the full marathon consists of two laps. Aid stations provide water, Gatorade, orange slices, and granola bars. The event offers military-themed shirts, unique bibs, finisher medals, and discounts for veterans and local students and staff. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
