Lincoln Marathon - Full/Half/10K/5K

The Lincoln Marathon is a multi-distance running festival held in Lincoln, Maine. Managed by the Maine Endurance Sports Alliance, the event features several road races that utilize the same starting point at the corner of West Broadway and Main Street. The routes lead south along Route 2 toward Enfield. The course is described as flat, straight, and fast.

Available event distances include:

  • Marathon
  • Half Marathon
  • 10K
  • 5K

The marathon and half marathon courses are USATF sanctioned and Boston certified. The event is designed to accommodate participants of various abilities, and there is no official time limit for completing the races. Professional timing services are used for all events.

Participants who utilize personal nutrition bottles can drop them off at the operations tent near the starting line before the races begin. These bottles are then placed on designated tables at the water stations along the course. At the finish line located in Prince Thomas Park, a vendor area is available for participants and guests. The location offers nearby parking, lodging, and dining options. Multiple challenge medals are available for those who participate in other designated regional races within the same calendar year. Packet pickup is scheduled for the day prior to the race at a location near the starting line. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
