The Pocono Mountains Marathon Race Festival is a fall running event held at Promised Land State Park in Greentown, Pennsylvania. The marathon, half marathon, 10K, and 5K all start and finish at the Upper Lake Overflow Parking Lot. This variety allows participants to pursue long-distance goals or enjoy a shorter run within the park. The full marathon is certified as a Boston Marathon qualifier, providing a specific performance benchmark. The course takes advantage of the Pocono Mountains scenery in autumn, with the route detailed on Map My Run. Registration and awards are available for male, female, and non-binary participants across overall and age-group categories for the marathon, half marathon, and 10K. First-time marathon and half marathon finishers receive a plaque in addition to their medal. Participants also get a shirt and ankle running socks. A discount is offered to service members and their families.

The Steamtown Marathon begins at Forest City High School in Forest City, Pennsylvania, and concludes at Courthouse Square in downtown Scranton. This fall road marathon is USATF certified and an official Boston Marathon qualifier. A wheelchair and handcycle marathon is offered alongside the main race. Entrants should be confident they can finish within six hours; the race does not offer deferrals. The course descends 955 feet from start to finish, giving Steamtown a fast profile while still presenting the full 26.2-mile challenge. It travels through 14 communities and includes several mostly paved miles on the Rails to Trails path along the Lackawanna River before arriving in Scranton. The race benefits Saint Joseph's Center in Scranton. Runner and sponsor support has contributed over $2.6 million to the center since 1996.
