Clarence DeMar Marathon

Clarence DeMar Marathon This is the Official page of the Annual Clarence DeMar Marathon & DeMar Half Marathon in Ke Join us for the annual Clarence DeMar Marathon. Same day. Mr.

Named after the unprecedented 7 time winner of the Boston Marathon (he ran it 33 times....after he was told he shouldnt run because he has a "bad" heart). The last time he won it, he was 41. Now also includes the DeMar Half Marathon. Different starting points, same finish. DeMar lived and taught in Keene, NH & this race is a tribute to him. The race ends at the spot on Keene State College's Appian

Way which is very close to where he taught for many years. This is a mixture of rural back NH roads with the last mile covering some of Main St. in downtown Keene. While we are slightly biased, we are confident that this is one of the most scenic marathons you'll find in New England. It occurs just in the beginning of peak foliage here in SW NH. The course starts in Gilsum, NH (pop 811) at el 1100 ft & ends in Keene, NH @ el 450...ish. This is a USATF Certified Race and will follow all of the USATF's guidelines. The race will be limited, so please sign up soon on our website. The race is on Sunday, Sept 29th at 8am
