About the race
The Cheap Marathon, staged by Millennium Running, takes place on the Derry Rail Trail in Derry, NH. The flat, out-and-back course uses one loop for the half marathon and two loops for the marathon, offering a fast, PR-friendly route with elevation gains of 263 ft (half) and 526 ft (full). The event uses a time-trial start with pace-based corralling and bib-group assignments to optimize conditions.
Runners enjoy aid stations every two miles, gear check, and post-race refreshments, with live results and free race photos. Finisher ribbons, online awards, and charitable partnerships round out the experience; completing three events earns the Series Jacket.
