Hello, my name is Darrin Bright with OhioHealth Max Sports Medicine Institute. I am also the
Medical Director for the Columbus Marathon, Capital City Half Marathon, and Emerald City
Half Marathon. I wanted to talk today a little bit about what we do for your medical needs
on the course. We have a comprehensive medical team made up of medical volunteers. We work
closely with the Columbus Fire and other Fire Departments throughout town; we work with
the American Red Cross. Through that, we are able to ensure the health and safety of all
our participants, volunteers and spectators. We have medical tents out on the course. You'll
typically pass by three to four different medical tents depending on what course you're
running. We'll also have volunteers at the finish line and throughout the course, you'll
run across 8-10 different EMS teams and 6-8 different American Red Cross teams. They're
all there to help ensure your health and safety.
