Organiser's Description
The Vermillion Trails Alliance is excited to host the fourth annual Victory Marathon, Half Marathon and 5k! Come run at a one of a kind USATF certified Boston Qualifier course that was a once-secret military compound, and support the VTA in its mission to grow and connect the people of Vermillion County by expanding our network of trail and recreation opportunities!
The Races: Whether you want to qualify for the Boston Marathon or you want to experience a 5K in a very unique setting, we have something for you!

* Certified marathon course for national race qualifications
* Unique Bib #s and finisher medals

* Discounts for Veterans, Vermillion and Parke Co. students and staff
The Location: Vermillion Rise Mega Park. The races take place on the grounds of a once-secret military munitions compound which supplied our military with explosives to help the U.S. win peace for the world during WWII. Our venue was then used to store many other military weapons throughout the mid 1900s through the very early 2000s. Now the Vermillion Rise Mega Park has been repurposed for local industry and retains many remnants and evidence of military ruins and manufacturing facilities.
