Marathon versenyek Poughkeepsie közelében

The Millbrook Marathon is a 26.2-mile road race in Millbrook, New York, presented by the Eastern Dutchess Road Runners Club. It takes place in April, starting promptly at 7:30 a.m. from the Town of Washington Park and Pool on Route 44, with a six-hour time limit. The course is USATF certified and eligible as a Boston Marathon qualifier, attracting runners seeking an official marathon time over a casual event. The route follows Millbrook roads, featuring rolling hills, primarily pavement with some packed dirt sections, and approximately 2,400 feet of elevation gain, making it unsuitable for those seeking a purely speed-focused race. The setting is rural Dutchess County, with quiet country roads and farms highlighted by organizers as key attractions. Awards are presented to the overall male and female finishers and to winners in each age group, while the first 200 participants are guaranteed finisher medals. Club members receive a discount, and early registrants are assured a race T-shirt.
