The Walkway Marathon is an annual marathon held in June in Poughkeepsie, New York and surrounding areas of the Hudson Valley. The first event, run on June 13, 2015, featured full and half marathons and a 5K run, attracting a total of nearly 2,500 participants (and another 2,500 visitors watching them), including 283 runners in the full marathon. The routes started at Marist College and included the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park, which the runners traversed in both directions, as well as some adjacent segments of rail trails in Dutchess and Ulster Counties.
