  The Boston or Bust Marathon & Half Marathon

  USATF Certification information for our 2024 Boston Qualifiers!

  It's (almost) time to book your tickets to run Boston! The Boston or Bust Marathon will be an extremely flat and fast course along Aldridge Creek and Tennessee River in South Huntsville. The course will start and finish at Ditto Landing Marina and is entirely on the Alridge Creek Greenway.

  We will have Chip Timing and both half and full marathon courses will be certified.

  ..And then there's the post race party. We will have post race food for all finishers, 2 drink tickets, post race music, all at the Ditto Landing Marina Pavilion. We believe in training hard, racing hard and celebrating hard and this race will be no different!

  Historically the last window to qualify for the following April Boston race is the second weekend in September. This is one of the very few last minute qualifiers in the South. Average Temperatures at this time of year are 64F/ 87F which is why we will start at 6:00AM.

  The guaranteed t-shirt deadline has passed however we will have extras along with RunningLane shirts for those last minute signups so you don't go home empty handed.

  All aid stations will have water, gatorade and GU energy gels.
