The County Marathon

The County Marathon, in Prince Edward County, Ontario, is the 22nd annual PEC Marathon & Half Marathon. The Full Marathon begins in Wellington, the Half starts near West Lake, and the course finishes in Picton in front of the Crystal Palace. Distances include a 42.2 km full, a 21.1 km half, a 2–5 person Marathon Relay, and a newly added 5K Fun Run.

Both the full and half are Athletic Canada Certified Courses, with the full serving as a Boston-qualifier. The route highlights countryside scenery—lakes, rolling hills, and local wineries—with warm hospitality. Race weekend includes buses to starts, kit pickup, finish-line support, and finisher medals and tech shirts with registration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
