Description

Once everyone finishes their individual race, head over to Madra Rua so we can cheer on our runners as they finish the half and full! There we can enjoy some beers and re-fuel on food (before we head to our post-Marathon party).

Our Official Post Marathon Party will be at Holy City this year! Plan on heading over there at around 2 pm (once our last runner crosses the finish line). Some people may want to shower and change before hand, so we'll plan on making our toast #ToTheProfessor and taking our group photo in front of the Holy City shipping container at 3:30 pm.
