Sandpoint Marathon Weekend
The Sandpoint Marathon weekend is a two day running event based at War Memorial Field in Sandpoint, Idaho, on the shore of Lake Pend Oreille. Courses run along waterfront trails and through downtown streets framed by the Selkirk and Cabinet Mountains. A finish festival called the Beginning of Summer Market takes place at War Memorial Field with local vendors, food trucks, craft beverages, live music, and family activities. Spectator access is free and open to the public.
