Boise Marathon is a 5K, 10K, Half & Full Boston Qualifier Marathon course located on the Boise River Greenbelt Path.
Runners, get ready for the adventure of a lifetime!
We’ve got the race for you: the Boise Marathon!
The Boise Marathon is open to runners of all ages. The half and full marathon courses provide snacks during the last half of each course, and at aid stations, you’ll find water and energy drinks. And don’t worry—all you need is a pair of running shoes because we’re not going to make you go through any intense training sessions before Sunday morning rolls around. All finishers get a finisher medal and t-shirt, so come out and join over 2,000 runners from over 30+ states as we run along the gorgeous greenbelt in Boise, Idaho!
We’ve got an elevation of only 328 feet, so no matter how much training you do before Sunday morning rolls around, it’s going to be a breeze!
Located next to the beautiful Boise Greenbelt, bring your friends and loved ones and enjoy a weekend full of food, music, and fun! With live music from some of Boise’s talent and plenty of family activities, join us in our first-ever celebration of Harvest on the Water! The best part is that Harvest on the Water is free to the public!
Whether you’re curious about events, sponsorships, or even press—we’re ready to answer any questions. Please allow 24-48 hours for a response to inquiries.
