The low-low rates you’ve come to expect from the Mercy Health Glass City Marathon remain the same as last year. The earlier you signup to Run Glass City, the better pricing will be available. Tiered/block are in place for this year’s running. Tier/block pricing rewards the earliest registrants with the best rates possible while maintaining our extremely competitive pricing throughout the year. All events have been set up with total registrant caps on each block. Once each block sells out, subsequent tier/block prices activate automatically until the event sells out completely.
