This event is clearly one of the best, as evidenced by the fact that the city nearly revolves around it. Tons of race options, spectators throughout the well-marked course, and plenty of fuel (inckudonh pizza post-race). Worth the hype.

The Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon is a wonderful set of races in the first Sunday in May. Rolling hills through Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Great for all distances and very spectator friendly. Great gear they provide and the city is great.
