About
Marquette Marathon is held on August 28, 2027, in Marquette, Michigan, on courses following the lakes and crossing the town. Three distances are offered: the marathon (26.2 mi), the half marathon (13.1 mi) and a 5K (3.1 mi). Start times are not listed in our records.
Lake Superior keeps the Upper Peninsula cool well into the summer, which makes a late-August marathon here far more comfortable than the same date further south — one of the better reasons to travel for a race. The same water brings wind on exposed shoreline sections, so keep something in reserve rather than spending it while the air is still.
