3rd Oldest
US Marathon
Started in 1956, as a challenge between smokers and non smokers, the Pikes Peak Marathon is the 3rd oldest ongoing US marathon behind Boston and Yonkers. Although the Western Hemisphere marathon has a few more runnings, it has not been contested since 2001. See the list.
Notices: You must get your own packet and you must have a photo ID. This holds true for race morning pick-up as well! The races start on time, so we encourage you to pick up your packet prior to race morning. Packets will not be available after the races are over.
