Corning, New York, is home to the fun and friendly Wineglass Marathon. This quaint and charming town has played host to thousands of runners chasing their marathon dreams for the past 35 years. This point-to-point race starts in Bath, New York, and winds through farmland and the small communities surrounding Corning. Located in the New York Finger Lakes Region, this fall marathon provides a backdrop of changing leaves and beautiful countryside. An overall net downhill course, Wineglass has become a favorite for first-time marathoners, runners seeking a new personal best time, and that elusive BQ (Boston Qualifying marathon time). The peaceful setting and laid back atmosphere takes a lot of stress out of marathon weekend that you can face at some of the “bigger” marathons.
