Raquette River Marathon, Half, 10k, and 5k

The Raquette River Marathon and associated races take place along the scenic Raquette River, with the start and finish at the Potsdam Arena. The course, featuring rolling hills, is certified by USATF and serves as a Boston Qualifier. Participants receive a swag bag with registration materials, and water stops are available throughout the course. Check-in is inside the arena, and awards are given to top finishers, with cash prizes for the first three places in both the marathon and half marathon events. The event supports local charities and has a variety of sponsors.
