Roxbury Marathon

The Roxbury Marathon, held in Roxbury, Connecticut, offers three challenging races: a 50K, a full marathon, and a half marathon. These events feature hilly courses combining paved and dirt roads through rural landscapes. The marathon and 50K include an out-and-back segment on Judds Bridge Road and multiple loops around the Hemlock Loop, while the half marathon has a shorter out-and-back and one loop.

The races are no-frills, emphasizing a tough, scenic experience with aid stations every 2 to 3 miles providing water and Gatorade. The event takes place in mid-autumn, with variable weather and strict time limits of six to seven hours. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
