A quietly fast race that does not ask for much beyond honest pacing.

Maritime Marathon is a strong choice for a PR attempt, and Manitowoc offers very little meaningful elevation. The tradeoff is atmosphere: expect long quiet stretches and few spectators.

Why runners choose this race

A out-and-back course around Manitowoc, WI, with very little meaningful elevation change.
