Race Info
The Land Between the Lakes Marathon is a trail marathon in Grand Rivers, Kentucky, held in March alongside a 50 mile, a 60K and a 23K. All four distances start together at Lighthouse Landing on the Kentucky Lake shoreline and follow the road about two miles to the trailhead in the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area. The marathon covers two laps of the 11.3-mile Canal Loop, mostly single-track dirt with rolling hills on the Lake Barkley side and larger climbs on the Kentucky Lake side, then returns by road to Grand Rivers for the finish.
