In order to host a safe and enjoyable event in a fragile environment, this race will be capped at 500 runners total.
The marathon will start at 8:00 am Sunday, April 27, 2025, at Martha's Vineyard Regional High School. The Half Marathon will start at 8:15 am from the same location. Both courses are USATF certified (MA 16036JK) and the marathon is a Boston Marathon Qualifier.
Like its sister race, The MV Winter Classic 20 Miler and Amity Relay, all proceeds from this race go back into our community's youth groups. The youth organizations & sports teams on the Island, who collaborate for this event, receive a share of the event proceeds. You will see the kids along the course manning aid stations and cheering runners on.
