New England Green River Marathon
The New England Green River Marathon is scheduled for Sunday, August 22, 2027. The course runs from Marlboro, Vermont to Greenfield, Massachusetts and follows the Green River through an 1870s covered bridge before finishing on the grounds of Greenfield Community College beneath maple trees.
The course is USATF certified with certification code MA18003JK. It has a net 1,400 foot drop over a rolling, mostly downhill route. Because the net downhill is under 1,500 feet, the course is not subject to the Boston Athletic Association downhill adjustment and times stand for Boston qualification without adjustment.
Organizers report that the route has produced many personal best performances and Boston qualifying times for well prepared runners. Registration for the 2027 race opens on January 1, 2027 at noon.
A ranking source lists this marathon as the 17th fastest course in the nation and the fastest in New England. The event includes a finish line celebration on the Greenfield Community College campus. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
