Celebrate the End of Winter in the North Country
Established in 2017, The Maple Run is the premier half marathon in St. Lawrence County. We run to celebrate the end of winter, contribute to the economic growth of our community, and benefit local running programs. While The Maple Run encourages the sport of running for all, we proudly focus on supporting girls’ and women’s cross country teams from high school to collegiate levels.
Work Hard, Play Hard
You're going to train all winter for a half marathon or 5K in Spring- you deserve some kudos and great gear. 2023 welcomes back the woodallion from Ashworth Awards for all finishers, our signature mini-bottle of local maple syrup, and the now-iconic Maple Run crewneck sweatshirt for your toils.
For competitve runners, the Maple Run now offers a prize purse for 1st thru 3rd places in Men's, Women's, and Non-Binary categories.
To make training more fun in the winter months the Bucc Wild Run Club offers a free group run on Tuesdays, at 6 pm in Canton, NY.
