The 2026 Baltimore Marathon is a hilly, city point-to-loop course starting near Oriole Park at Camden Yards and M&T Bank Stadium, climbing past the Maryland Zoo, looping Patterson Park and Lake Montebello, and finishing at McKeldin Plaza in the Inner Harbor. It is USATF-certified and a Boston qualifier, with a 7-hour time limit.

Why attend here

Baltimore in October is crisp and lively, making the marathon a perfect excuse to explore the city's waterfront and historic neighborhoods. After crossing the finish line at the Inner Harbor, you can treat yourself to a true Maryland crab cake, wander through the stalls of the nearby Lexington Market, and take in the autumn colors at Patterson Park.
