The McKirdy Micro Marathon series is tailored by and for runners, created to foster personal bests and facilitate Boston Marathon qualification. Initially inspired post-pandemic, the series later evolved to host an elite-level event supporting athletes aiming for USATF Olympic Trials or Olympic Standards. The event attracted international participants seeking a supportive and fast competitive platform. A significant number of athletes achieved personal or second personal record times, and the race notably produced multiple Olympians. Looking ahead, the series aims to cater to athletes of all levels, offering a dynamic racing environment with potential impacts.
