About the Maple Leaf Marathon
Maple Leaf Marathon is the Vermont stop in New England Challenge I, a compact series built for runners stacking several certified marathons in one trip. The race uses Lake Morey Resort as its base and keeps logistics simple with an early start and repeat-loop format.
Maple Leaf Marathon course description
The marathon is run as multiple loops around Lake Morey on a USATF-certified course. That format makes pacing and aid-station access predictable, but the repeated shoreline miles can feel exposed if wind picks up.
Weather for the Maple Leaf Marathon
Early May in northern Vermont can start cold and finish mild. Runners should plan for a cool first hour, possible lake breeze, and a bigger temperature swing than a mid-summer New England race.
