Boston or Bust Marathon
The Boston or Bust Marathon, held in Huntsville, Alabama, offers both marathon and half marathon distances on a certified, flat, and fast course along Aldridge Creek and the Tennessee River. Starting and finishing at Ditto Landing Marina, the race takes place entirely on the Aldridge Creek Greenway, providing scenic views and an ideal setting for runners aiming to qualify for the Boston Marathon. The event features chip timing, generous cutoff times (6 hours for the marathon, 5 hours for the half), and a festive post-race party with food, drinks, and music at the marina pavilion.
It is one of the last Boston qualifying races in the South, held in early September. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
