Runners’ mural to showcase Homewood during marathon Share this post Long after the bands, cheerleaders and crowds disperse from neighborhood celebrations during the Dick’s Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon, Homewood will have made a more lasting tribute. A work of public art, made in part from trash that will be collected before the marathon, will be created during the May 4 race — between mile 17 and 18 — in a city-owned lot at North Lang and Frankstown avenues. It will be a mural collage depicting three runners symbolically. Officials from the marathon, Operation Better Block and GTECH Strategies will hold a news conference on the site at 11 a.m. today to discuss their plans.
