The B&A Trail Marathon and Half-Marathon take place in Severna Park, Maryland, starting at Severna Park High School. First organized by the Annapolis Striders in 1992, with the half marathon added in 1996, this event offers a course along the B&A Trail.

Marathon (26.2 miles)
Half Marathon (13.1 miles)

The marathon course remains open until 1:00 PM. Participants who require more time to finish may request a 30 minute early start, though those who utilize this option are not eligible for awards.
