Winners have included: Caroline Rotich, Augustus Mbusya Kavutu, Jemima Sumgong and Rolando Vera. The distance changed in 2011 due to declining numbers.

The race's course, which runs through the Ohio Valley is often referred to as the "Toughest Half Marathon in America" due to its changes in elevation.
