Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor has opened registration for the 2024 St. Luke’s D & L RaceFest, Sunday, Nov. 10.
St. Luke’s D & L RaceFest is a four-race event that showcases the cities of Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton with a majority of the race miles on the D & L Trail that connects them.
Registration link and full event information is available at race.delawareandlehigh.org.
The four races that comprise RaceFest are the St. Luke’s D & L Marathon, the St. Luke’s D & L Marathon Relay, the D & L Heritage Half Marathon Run and the D & L Heritage Half Marathon Walk.
The 26.2-mile marathon course travels from downtown Allentown to Easton and the 13.1-mile half marathon course starts in Historic Bethlehem and ends at the same finish line in Easton next to Scott Park. Both courses are USA Track and Field certified.
More than 2,200 registrants are expected for the four races in 2024.
“Feedback from our racers in 2023 was overwhelmingly positive, so we can’t wait to provide another memorable event in 2024,” said Race Director Michael Drabenstott. “We have a lot of room to scale this race and bring more people into the Lehigh Valley to enjoy challenging themselves on the treasure that is the D & L Trail. It’s a unique racing experience that is well on its way to becoming a marquee event on the mid-Atlantic’s fall race calendar.”
