Expo Testimonials
"We obviously look forward to an event that size taking place in Columbus each year. People just want to be around the atmosphere. There are people there that have nothing to do with the race. We're not only pulling people from central Ohio, but the rest of the state and many times, the rest of the nation." - Randy Benedict, director of Second Sole central Ohio location.
"More so than any other expo I've attended, I found the volunteers here to be particularly engaging. They not only answered all my questions and guided me in the right direction at the expo, but I got the sense that they genuinely cared about my performance in the race." - Matthew Ottiger, Columbus resident and 12-time marathon finisher
