What others are saying about the DeMar Marathon

A lovely small marathon that is very well organized and supported. A big thank you to the race director for not cancelling due to the heat – as someone working on 50 States, this was huge. The ice at every water stop was tremendously helpful as were the misting stations. Great volunteers all along the course, good food at the end, and lots of it!

As a runner and a race director I can say that this is quite simply one of the finest half marathons I have run. The volunteers are all helpful and cheerful even at 6 am! The course is beautiful with PR potential which is a great combination. Also the finish line under the arch at Keene State makes you feel like you are in the Olympics. Run this race!”

Gorgeous marathon through spectacular scenery. The best part, though, is the incredible race director and the volunteers. This is one of the best, and a must-do marathon!

This was my first marathon and boy am I glad I chose this one to upgrade my running milestones. Great race, nice location. This event is so well organized; they even let me change from the half to the full at the last minute. The volunteers were awesome, and coordination with local law enforcement was great to keep everyone safe. The cheering at the finish line was INCREDIBLE AND MOTIVATING as well as all the fun signs hung along the way. I’ll be back.
