Vermont Running: Maple Creamees and Green Mountain Views

Running in Vermont is a quintessential New England experience, characterized by challenging rolling terrain, covered bridges, and courses that are at their most beautiful during the spring and the spectacular fall foliage season. The state’s premier and largest event is the M&T Bank Vermont City Marathon in Burlington. This race is known for its festive atmosphere, utilizing the city's unique position between the Green Mountains and Lake Champlain. Runners enjoy scenic waterfront views and enthusiastic support, although the course is known for its rolling hills, making it a challenging but rewarding destination race.

The Scenic Challenge: Mad Marathon

For runners seeking a truly scenic and memorable challenge, the Mad Marathon, Half Marathon, and Relay is one of the world's most beautiful races. Set in the heart of the Mad River Valley, this event is famous for its gorgeous but relentless course. The route consists almost entirely of rolling hills and takes runners through picturesque farmlands and covered bridges, providing panoramic views of the Green Mountains. It is a highly demanding race, but the visual payoff and the small-town Vermont charm at the finish line are considered priceless.

Another popular event is the Champlain Islands Marathon, which offers a slightly flatter Boston Qualifier option through the scenic, agricultural islands in Lake Champlain. Whether tackling the intense elevation of a mountain race like the Catamount Ultra in Stowe or cruising the rolling backroads, Vermont provides a friendly running community and a stunning natural backdrop that elevates every mile.
