November 3rd – Sacramento
Van Vleck Ranch is the closest thing Reebok Spartan Race has on its calendar to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. If the weather remains dry, you will be confronted with an arduous, rolling landscape that goes as far as the eye can see. Should it rain, you will be presented with one of the most technical terrains you could hope to encounter — it will become slippery and the slopes will become a battle for even the most seasoned racer.
Little Apple Marathon Presented By AIB International

43rd Annual 3TV Phoenix 10K and Half Marathon
November 4th – Phoenix, AZ
This is the race that started it all, bringing the City of Phoenix to it’s feet back in 1976. Founded by Dr. Art Mollen, his vision brought our growing, vibrant city together with a sport still in its infancy. It set the charge used to ignite the running boom in Arizona. Over the years, the race has hosted Olympic Gold medalists, American record holders and more first time race participants than any other event in the southwestern United States. Won’t you join us to be part of this Valley classic?
November 11th – Portsmouth, NH

2018 Amica Insurance Seattle Marathon
This Original Hometown Marathon is on a beautiful course with rolling hilly sections and scenic views of downtown Seattle and Lake Washington. From its humble beginnings in 1970 when a group of friends from the University of Washington decided to hold their own marathon, the Seattle Marathon Family of Events has grown into one of the largest combination marathon/half marathon in the Pacific Northwest and one of the top ten largest in the U.S. That first marathon 48 years ago sported 38 runners. This year, 10,000 participants are expected for the marathon and half marathon walking and running events. Join us Thanksgiving Weekend for a great destination marathon on a beautiful course with rolling hilly sections and scenic views of downtown Seattle and Lake Washington.
