New Hampshire Running: Mountain Ascents and Fall Foliage Routes
New Hampshire's running landscape is defined by its beautiful New England scenery, offering runners extreme mountain challenges and scenic road races, particularly during the stunning fall foliage season. The state's most iconic and arguably toughest event is the Mount Washington Road Race. This grueling 7.6-mile event is run entirely uphill on the auto road to the summit of Mount Washington, notorious for the most extreme weather in the country. It is a highly competitive and intense vertical climb, often requiring lottery entry, and is a major bucket-list race for serious runners.
The Scenic Lakes and City Marathons
For a more traditional road challenge, the Clarence DeMar Marathon in Keene is a very popular fall option. Known as one of the oldest marathons in the country, the course is a point-to-point route that runs through classic New England towns and offers a scenic tour, making it a reliable Boston Marathon qualifying opportunity. The timing is ideal for catching the peak of the autumnal colors across the landscape.
In the southern part of the state, races like the Baystate Marathon utilize New Hampshire's accessible roads near the border, offering flat and fast courses. Meanwhile, the smaller trail races throughout the White Mountains provide endless opportunities for rugged endurance running, ensuring that whether you're tackling extreme elevation or cruising through rolling hills, the Granite State delivers a memorable, picturesque course.
