Manchester City Marathon

The Manchester City Marathon, held in Manchester, New Hampshire, offers a Boston-qualifying marathon course that showcases the city's historic Millyard, North End, and the scenic Merrimack River area, including the Goffstown Rail Trail. The event features multiple race distances: a full marathon (26.2 miles), half marathon (13.1 miles), a 5K, and relay options. The start and finish are located downtown at Veterans Park.

Aid stations are plentiful, approximately every two miles, providing water, Gatorade, and nutrition. The race fosters a supportive atmosphere with finisher medals, age-group awards, and post-race refreshments including beer. It also supports local veterans through its official charity, Swim With A Mission. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
