Welcome to Columbia, the capital city of South Carolina and home of the Fighting Gamecocks. We hope you take some time to enjoy the city during Marathon weekend. Looking for a great place to catch a quick run? Lace up and head to the Riverwalk. It's a great run and a great view. Family fun? No problem. Head straight over to Riverbanks Zoo, one of the top ten rated zoos in America. With so much to do, it's no wonder that Columbia was voted one of Kiplinger Magazine's 10 Great Places to Live!    We could talk about Columbia all day, but if you really want to know what the deal is with this great city, check out The Midlands Authority for Conventions, Sports and Tourism.
