Bakline's McKirdy Micro Marathon & 10K
A blazing fast, certified course to run your fastest marathon or 10K.
Marathon
Bakline’s McKirdy Micro Marathon is meant for the “on the cusp” athlete looking to run the OTQ standard or faster. (Athletes must have achieved a time of 2:25/2:45 or equivalent to be eligible for entry, more information available on the registration page.)
Options are limited and proper support to run as fast as you are capable of is lacking in the vast majority of events around the country. Our event will be the ONLY RACE in the country with a total “in-race” support concept in mind for all participating athletes!
1 – Bottle support for all participants.
2 – Full course tangent line – stay on the line and run exactly 26.2 miles!
3 – Dedicated pacers
4 – $10,000 shared prize purse to be evenly split amongst all who get the OTQ standard (international athletes eligible).
10K
The 10K distance seems to be the “forgotten” race distance, with fast 10K courses even harder to find.
Open to all abilities, our 10K race is your best chance to run FAST! Run on the same looped course as the marathon, our 10K is touted to be on the fastest loop in the country!
We encourage you to come watch the marathon and then run YOUR best 10K.

Bakline
Bakline is the presenting and operational partner of Bakline’s Mckirdy Micro.
Bakline is committed to the athlete devoted to their craft, even when no one is watching. We’re there for the morning miles, full days on the trail, sideways wind, and the last rep. What we do is an art to create, develop, and design apparel that you don’t just wear but train and race in. To suffer and triumph in. Gear has to be more than synthetic fibers in the same way athletes are more than a time on a clock. Craft is always a process.

Testimonials
Taking my marathon from 2:23 to 2:16 at Rockland Lake State Park was a moment I'll never forget. It was one of the greatest feelings I'd ever experienced.
Heather and James put on a hell of an event, and I can't wait to go back!
