The Lake Tahoe Marathon is one of the biggest annual events occurring in the Lake Tahoe Basin. The Lake Tahoe Marathon includes 30 separate events that involve walking, running, swimming, kayaking and/or cycling around the challenging terrain of the Sierra Majestic Mountains. There will also be many fun events for participants and family including lake tours, speed golf, a sunset cruise, awards ceremonies, clinics, lunches and a dinner buffet. Each event will test you mentally and physically.
- The 72 Mile Midnight Express Ultra Marathon will take you around Lake Tahoe while the moon and stars cheer you on. You can also sign up for the 50 Miler and finish just South of Tahoe City or those who do not want to stay up too late can start the 72 Mile Marathon at 8pm.
- The 3 Day Triple Marathon covers a total of 78.6 miles in 3 days time. You can run the entire shoreline of Lake Tahoe and cover two states in these challenging high altitude runs.
- The SUPER Triple Marathon is for the truly tough runners. You will compete in the 3 Day Triple Marathon, but instead of resting after the first day you join the 72 Mile Midnight Express and then finish the Triple Marathon.
