About This Race
The Lehigh Valley Marathon is Pennsylvania's premier Boston qualifier — a flat, fast course along the Lehigh Valley Rail Trail through former Bethlehem Steel industrial corridors, with iconic views of the massive Bethlehem Steel blast furnaces (now converted into a stunning arts and entertainment campus). The course runs through the rolling farmland of the Lehigh Valley, along the Lehigh River greenway, and into Easton's historic centre.
