The Napa Valley Marathon is an annual marathon, half marathon, and 5K in Napa County, California.[1] The USATF-certified marathon course begins in Calistoga at the northwestern tip of Napa County, and then traverses the Silverado Trail, ending in downtown Napa.[2][3] The race's course is primarily rolling hills or flat as it moves through rural California Wine Country.[4] The Napa Valley Marathon has been run in March since 1979, accepts only about 3,000 runners, and is widely considered one of the most scenic marathons in the United States.[5][6] The men's and women's winners of the race win their weight in wine.[7]
