Runners look forward to fall marathons and for a good reason! It’s the time when the weather is ideal for racing because there truly is nothing like running when the temps have dropped after a long summer. If you’re planning your schedule, here are some of the best Fall marathons from runner feedback to help you decide.
With mild, beautiful weather in most parts of the US, it’s no wonder that October and November marathons are so popular with runners. And when we first think of fall marathons, the one that pops up in our mind is usually the iconic New York City Marathon.
And it all starts in February with the drawing of the New York City marathon lottery. The moment when you find out if you need to revise your fall marathon training plan year or if you get to pound the pavement through one of the most well-known cities in the US.

You can still enjoy an early fall marathon to keep you on the same training schedule, have fun, and possibly BQ if that’s your goal!

So, no matter which particular race you choose, fall marathons are a great way to stay…
