About

Everything you need. One page per race.

MarathonRoutes gives you the course map, elevation profile, difficulty score and key race data for every marathon we cover — all in one place.

Why we built this

Picking a marathon is harder than it should be. Course maps are buried in PDFs, elevation profiles are non-existent or misleading, and comparing two races means jumping between a dozen tabs. Nobody tells you that the hills come at mile 20, or that the weather in October makes that course harder than it looks on paper.

MarathonRoutes puts the course map, elevation profile, difficulty score, weather data and key race facts on a single page — for every marathon we cover. So you can make a proper decision before you sign up.

What you get

Course Maps: Interactive GPX-sourced maps for every race we cover — zoom in, follow every turn, see exactly where the course goes.
Difficulty Score: A transparent 0–10 rating based on elevation, hill placement, weather, altitude and course shape. Not a guess — a formula. See how it works →
Elevation Profiles: Real GPS elevation data shown visually, so you can see at a glance whether a course is flat, rolling or brutal.
Race Comparison: Put any two races side by side — elevation, difficulty, course records, weather and more. Try it →
Always Free: Everything on the site is free to use.
