D&L RaceFest presented by St. Luke’s
November 15, 2026
Four signature races. One powerful day on the D&L Trail.
Join us for the fourth annual D&L RaceFest as four distinct events unite the Lehigh Valley through movement, history, and community.
Race Day Details
Downtown Allentown – 7:30 a.m.
- St. Luke’s D&L Marathon
- St. Luke’s D&L Marathon Relay
Historic Downtown Bethlehem – 7:30 a.m.
- D&L Heritage Half Marathon Run, Presented by St. Luke’s
- D&L Heritage Half Marathon Walk, Presented by St. Luke’s
All events finish in downtown Easton at the confluence of the Delaware and Lehigh Rivers, where participants and spectators gather for a post-race celebration.
The Experience
The marathon and half marathon follow the historic D&L Trail along the Lehigh River. Participants can expect a gentle net elevation drop and surfaces of fine gravel and paved trail sections.
Scenic river views, crisp autumn air, and joint-friendly terrain make this a fast and memorable point-to-point course.
Why We Run
We proudly welcome back St. Luke’s University Health Network as presenting sponsor — a regional leader in wellness and trail advocacy.
Proceeds benefit Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor Inc., supporting heritage and environmental programming and continued development of the 165-mile D&L Trail from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol.
