The Marathon runs from Wellington across Prince Edward County, eventually finishing in Picton. The Half Marathon runs the last half of the marathon route.

Along the way, participants are treated to some gorgeous rustic scenes.

Pimm reports on the day he conducted the measurements, the local temperature of 30 degrees C. broke a record. And the local newspaper, THE TIMES, covered it - see here.
