Lake Champlain Maritime Museum (LCMM) Half Marathon

Last year’s racers raved about the LCMM (Lake Champlain Maritime Museum) Half Marathon course which begins on the grounds of The Basin Harbor Resort and Boat Club in Vergennes, Vermont and goes out in a loop through beautiful farmlands in Panton and Ferrisburg with lake views and gorgeous mountain views along the way. This year, you can choose between the half marathon, or the new 5K & 10K. The 5K & 10K are limited to the grounds of Basin Harbor, but the course is also beautiful – running a loop along the lake, the harbor, into the woods, and along the golf course. The 10K course runs the loop twice.

The half marathon course is absolutely gorgeous and rolling. Where there is an elevation gain, you’re going to LOVE the long gentle down hills! Vermont is absolutely gorgeous in the Spring and this half marathon really highlights the rural features of this state passing by scenic farms and barns, views of both the Green Mountains of Vermont and the Adirondack Mountains of New York, and a run along the Otter Creek – not to mention the beauty of the Basin Harbor Resort.

The 5K/10K is also rolling with no major hills to worry about. In fact, many racers posted personal best times on this course during another race last year.

A portion of the net proceeds from this race will benefit Lake Champlain Maritime Museum’s Education for All Fund for scholarships providing access for all to LCMM’s wonderful education programs! Additional donations and/or fundraising are also encouraged, but not required.

All participants receive a finishers medal.
