Two Rivers Marathon Half Marathon Race Festival

Human Interest Story

Regan ran marathons on back-to-back days at the Two Rivers Marathon Festival in Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania, last month.

On the Run: Regan pursues marathon goals after transformation

Beautiful Route, World-Class Pacers, & Community

Very scenic, small, and friendly Marathon.

Super nice race director, extremely small race

Mark seems like a really nice guy, BUT...

Race Director needs lots of help, needs to care.

Prettier than expected (and happily downhill)
