Nicknamed "Raleigh's hometown race", the work done at the event could leave to bigger races, as the marathon is a qualifier for the Boston Marathon.
Andre Shinda ran the marathon and compliments Raleigh on coming together to cheer for the athletes.
"Raleigh did an incredible job of bringing everybody together despite what's going on in the world. It was a great atmosphere and I loved it," said Shinda.
