Race-cation Destinations

In addition to traveling, I also really enjoy running. I've completed numerous 5k's 8k's 10k's, trail races, and a half marathon. 2022 will be my first marathon starting with the iconic NYC Marathon. With races in so many beautiful places I should definitely start training!

  This marathon traverses 59 vineyards along the way and is probably the only race in the world where the water stations also ask if you prefer red or white!

• Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Meru, Kenya

  Here you can run a marathon or half in an African nature conservancy! Maybe take in a safari afterward!

• Las Vegas Strip in Nevada, United States

  I've never been to Vegas before, but shutting down the strip for a marathon or half marathon with 30,000 spectators under the neon lights sounds pretty cool!

• Anchorage, United States

  Each year the Mayor's Midnight Marathon (and half marathon) takes place in Alaska with 20+ hours of daylight. Running with glaciers and the northern lights, sign me up!

• Great Aloha Run, Carole Kai Charities in Honolulu, United States

  A half marathon on the island of Oahu, and then going to relax on the beach? Yes please!

• Bay of Fundy

  The Bay of Fundy Half Marathon (or marathon) is one of the few international races. Beginning in Canada and ending in Lubec, Maine be sure to dress warm and don't forget your passport!

• Great Wall of China, China

  The Great Wall Marathon caps out at 2500 participants a year. What a great way to experience this wold wonder and the surrounding villages and towns.

• Istanbul Marathon Office in İstanbul, Turkey

  Starting in Asia and ending in Europe, this is the only marathon in the world that is held on two continents!
