Mohawk Hudson River Marathon presented by The Hudson-Mohawk Road Runners Club is known for its scenic trails. The certified USA Track & Field (USATF) race and Boston Marathon qualifier is a point-to-point course that is primarily flat and fast, with a net elevation loss of 370 feet. The great weather made for some fantastic selfies! Check out these shots from Mohawk finishers and the scenic photos taken along the course!

The Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon celebrated its 35th anniversary this year with over 30,000 runners. As one of the top races in the USA, the event has strong ties to its community as they strive to “inspire millions of miles and create billions of smiles among runners, friends, families and communities.” The Twin Cities Marathon and its charity partners give back more than $950,000 annually to a variety of causes.

This year temperatures were a bit low, averaging at about 42 degrees. Heatsheets was honored to keep you guys cozy after the race! Shout out to these finishers for showing off your Heatsheets.

More than 3,000 runners were present at the Queen Bee Half Marathon this year. Participants were spotted in bee-themed costumes along the trails, from downtown Cincinnati to the Ohio River. With a mission to promote the fun of fitness, while raising support and funds for local charities that focus on women, the Bee-inspired event featured Jelly Bee-ns Station and a Nectar Station with orange slices.
