Event details

Step into New England tradition with the Baystate Marathon, held in the historic city of Lowell, Massachusetts. Known for its runner-focused approach and attention to safety, Baystate is one of the most respected marathons in the region. The course winds through charming mill-era neighborhoods, peaceful parks, and along the picturesque Merrimack River, offering a race experience that is both scenic and thoughtfully designed.

With a largely flat and fast course and only mild elevation changes, Baystate is ideal for runners chasing a personal best or qualifying time. It’s no surprise this race has earned a reputation as a favorite among competitive and first-time marathoners alike.

As the race that is “For Runners, By Runners” we intend to improve the runner experience every year.  Here is what we recently improved:

  • A new finish line experience with monitors showing your name and finishing time as you cross.

  • Courtesy changing tents available (next to the bag check tent in the finisher’s area).

  • Race fly-through video and a personalized photo gallery so you can brag on social media available the next day.

  • A BQ/PR bell, which will have a photographer to take pictures. So we want to encourage everyone one that runs a BQ or PR to stop by and ring the bell and get a picture!

  • A new addition is a Recovery Tent for runners to relax, get a massage or stretch by one of the massage therapists or physical therapists that will be in the Recovery area.

  • ‘Motivation Mile’ signs, which are lined with inspirational messages from our club members, fellow runners, and others, to help you push through mentally where you need it most.

  • Expo located on the course for ease of pickup and to build familiarity of the last mile of the course.​​

FYI: We do NOT have a live video feed of the race.  Therefore, don't click on any social media links suggesting such.
