Standouts
New England's classic fall foliage marathon along Casco Bay, Oct 4, 2026. Open registration from $75, USATF-certified Boston qualifier, rolling out-and-back, 6:15 limit.
Why attend here
Running the Maine Marathon in October means crisp, golden foliage and the salty scent of Casco Bay as you wind along the coast—peak fall color without the summer crowds. Afterward, warm up with a bowl of clam chowder or a lobster roll at a Portland seafood shack, and take a slow stroll along the Eastern Promenade to soak in the harbor views.
