The Experience

The Charlevoix Marathon, first run in 2007 and now in its 19th year, is a beloved institution for runners seeking a fast, flat course. This USATF-certified race boasts a net drop of 0.00 m/km, making it a prime location for personal bests.

Runners will find themselves on paved roads, with the course offering views of Lake Michigan. The typical race-day weather in late May or early June provides comfortable temperatures, averaging between 58–73°F, though winds can be a factor.

With a median field size of around 563 finishers and recent numbers reaching approximately 722, the race has a growing trend. While the repeat-runner loyalty is around 13%, the event draws participants from across the country, making it a destination worth considering for those chasing a new personal record.
