The nationally recognized, Asheville Marathon & Half Marathon is celebrating 11 years! The races take place on Saturday, March 18, 2023 in Downtown Asheville, NC. The Asheville Marathon and Half events are 'boutique style' events with limited entries available per day. The Asheville Marathon & Half run through the best parts of the City of Asheville. Including downtown city streets, River Arts District, along the French Broad River, and through the park for this city-style, point-to-point race. These fast races are a dream come true for runners looking to get a personal best in the mountains of Western North Carolina. The majority of the miles are downhill from downtown and ‘flat’ running along the river on the greenway and through the city parks. Endurance runners will have an opportunity to ‘break in’ the brand new section of the newly completed greenway section of the French Broad River Greenway on Riverside Drive and Lyman Street. Runners are on mostly paved surfaces throughout the entire event with a few dirt sections within the French Broad River Park.
