About the Kaiser Permanente Napa Valley Marathon
The Kaiser Permanente Napa Valley Marathon is a point-to-point wine country race from Calistoga to Napa. It is a notable early-March Boston qualifier that draws runners for the Silverado Trail course more than for big-city crowd energy.
Course
The marathon runs point to point along Silverado Trail, starting in Calistoga and finishing in Napa. The route is scenic and generally quick, but runners still need to manage camber, exposed stretches, and small rollers rather than expecting a track-flat course.
Race-day weather
March in Napa Valley often gives good marathon temperatures, with a cool morning and a chance of damp roads or spring rain. Later miles can feel warmer once the sun reaches the open vineyard sections.
