Mile 207: America's Most Meaningful Race, The Columbus Marathon, with Darris Blackford & Alli Hile

All Episodes

June 10, 2025 • 80 mins

The Columbus Marathon identifies itself as, "America's Most Meaningful Race." After spending the next hour with Darris Blackford and Alli Hile, we think you'll understand why that title fits the event. Darris serves as Race Director, drawing on a wealth of experience as he helps organize one of the Midwest's finest marathons. Alli was the original Marathon Mile Patient Champion representing Nationwide Children's Hospital -- the primary beneficiary of Columbus Marathon's extraordinary fundraising outreach and source of race day inspiration for runners and walkers. You can find full details for the 45th running of the Columbus Marathon on October 19 at: columbusmarathon.com Questions, comments, show ideas? Email us: secondsflatpodcast@gmail.com Enjoy the show? We'd love your feedback in a 5 star review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts! columbusrunning.com
