The Metrodome Inline Marathon was originally introduced to the Metrodome as a welcoming and friendly environment for the first time marathon skater all they way up to the professionals. This event is utilized by some skaters to “get in shape” for the up coming marathon season, and by other individuals to challenge their bodies to go further then they have ever gone before. With a full marathon, half marathon and team competition, the Metrodome Inline Marathon is like no other marathon in the world.
