Bay of Fundy Marathon

The communities bordering the Bay of Fundy are thrilled to announce the Bay of Fundy International Marathon (BFIM) will return on Sunday, June 21, 2026.

Get ready for an awesome weekend packed with races that highlight the best of Downeast Maine and the Atlantic Maritimes. We’re super excited to bring you a marathon, half marathon, and 10k that not only showcase our beautiful surroundings but also bring our communities closer together.

Starting at the most easterly point in the USA, West Quoddy Lighthouse, the rolling USATF and Athletics Canada certfied Marathon course offers miles of water and harbor views. Crossing from the International border by way of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial Bridge and Lubec Narrows, the course takes runners past the President’s summer home in Roosevelt Campobello International Park. Traversing stunning Campobello Island over to Head Harbor Light, the course then retraces its steps back across the bridge to finish along Water Street in the heart of Lubec.
