New Scenic Course: the El Paso Marathon will feature a new course that gives runners a taste of the city’s different neighborhoods, from upscale new developments in the far east sections to the urban Victorian homes on Montana Avenue that date to the 19th century.
Starting at the east El Paso campus of the The Hospitals of Providence, the course will head east on Tierra Cortez Avenue, letting runners enjoy sunrise over the Hueco Mountain to the northeast, and miles of rugged desert for as far as the eye can see. Then finish at the Southwest University Park.
