Bremerton Marathon

The Bremerton Marathon takes place in Bremerton, Washington, in mid-April, with a 7:00 AM start. The course has a reputation for steep, relentless hills and is designed to test seasoned athletes, so pacing strategy matters more than starting fast. It runs mostly on open roads with some crossings, so runners should stay alert. Aid stations and portable toilets are placed along the route. The event description also mentions a half marathon, although only the marathon (26.2 miles) is listed in the race data. Pacific Northwest weather in April can swing between sun and rain, so dress in layers you can adjust.
