Great New York State Marathon

The Great New York State Marathon is an annual marathon 26.2-mile (42.2 km) held each October in Syracuse, New York. The first running of the race , previously known as the Empire State Marathon, was on October 16, 2011. The marathon course has been certified by the USATF.[1] In spring of 2021, the race was purchased by Kelleigh's Cause, a 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to raising funds for medical research and awareness for the rare disease Arteriovenous Malformations,[2] with the intention of becoming a charity fundraising race. The marathon took on its current name following purchase. It consists of a weekend of races, including a 5K and 10K on Saturday, and a half and full marathon on Sunday, that start near the New York State Fairgrounds and loops around Onondaga Lake.
