What is Syrathon?

Syrathon brings together eight established road races, all based in the City of Syracuse, into this unique series. Syrathon’s eight race routes showcase Syracuse’s incredible and historic parks system as participants journey through a number of wonderful city neighborhoods.

The goal of the challenge is for registered participants to accumulate at least 26.2 race miles over the course of the Series. Those who meet the challenge are known as Syrathoners, and earn the coveted Syrathon Medal! 

The rewards:

  • A race shirt for all registrants.
  • A medal for all participants that complete at least 26.2 miles.
  • Race day raffles for cool prizes and swag.
