by The 2023 Runner’s World marathon calendar gives you good reason to keep those sneakers by the door. Having a race to train for keeps you lacing up, logging miles, and setting (and crushing!) goals.
While many races across the country opened back up in 2022 and allowed for pre-pandemic capacity, we added even more races to our 2023 marathon calendar. From California and Wisconsin to Georgia and Vermont, plus everywhere in between, there’s a race in locations that span the U.S. Plus, many of the marathons on this list also offer half marathons and 5Ks, so there’s really something for every runner. Maybe you’ll feel inspired to plan a destination race, make a full weekend out of 5K, or train at your peak for a marathon PR.
No matter what distance you go for or the goals you have in mind, check out the list of races, start planning and prepping, and get ready to crush your running game in 2023!
*Check the race websites before signing up and as race day gets closer for the most up-to-date COVID-19 protocols and information.
