Buffalo Marathon Weekend

“Great race through most of Buffalo. Super flat with a lot of tree lined streets. Great landmarks along the course – Frank Lloyd Wright – designed houses, Delaware Park and a lot of miles along the new waterfront. And Super Mario. Third time running this race. Great time.”
– JoeW, Repeat Runner ’19

“I was not a runner but my band The Knight Crew had the honor of playing in Delaware Park (think mile 17 water station). We were blown away not only by the outstanding organization of every detail and communication BUT you runners really made our day! The waving, the recognition of the music was such a nice positive and incredibly community feel….. Thank you runners!!!! You were simply amazing! Thank you to the Buffalo Marathon for having us. We would be honored to play for you again! Kudos!! Excellent job!!”
– Debbie Juliano Knight, Musician

“This was my first Buffalo Half, but it will not be my last. This was, hands down, the most organized race I’ve done. The volunteers and supporters were fantastic and constant throughout the course, plenty of water stations (with ice, too!), a super sweet medal and the best race shirt of any race! I would highly recommend this race to any runner; you won’t be disappointed!! See you next year, Buffalo!!”
– Libby Peters, Runner

“What a fantastic marathon! ou all really do a great job. The course is really beautiful and very well supported. The after party is amazing. Everyone was extremely friendly. The city is charming and it was wonderful to be able to go over to see Niagara Falls. Not only did I achieve a personal record here and my first sub 4 hour marathon, but the entire experience was really wonderful. Thank you so much, Buffalo Marathon!!!”
– Pina Porceddu, Runner

“This was my first marathon. It was a relatively flat course, and the support from volunteers, first responder and the City of Buffalo was top-notch. It made me proud.”
