About the Rails to Trails Marathon
Rails to Trails began in 2007 as a Boston Marathon Qualifier, but includes a one mile fun run, a 5K, and a half marathon. Several different groups and tons of volunteers from the surrounding community, along with the scenic route and 3/4 mile tunnel, make this a unique marathon experience. We are proud to say that 100% of the proceeds after expenses are donated back to the surrounding communities.
