About the event

D&L RaceFest presented by St. Luke’s

November 15, 2026

Four signature races. One powerful day on the D&L Trail.

Join us for the fourth annual D&L RaceFest as four distinct events unite the Lehigh Valley through movement, history, and community.

Race Day Details

Downtown Allentown – 8:00 a.m.

  • St. Luke’s D&L Marathon
  • St. Luke’s D&L Marathon Relay

Historic Downtown Bethlehem – 7:30 a.m.

  • D&L Heritage Half Marathon Run, Presented by St. Luke’s
  • D&L Heritage Half Marathon Walk, Presented by St. Luke’s

All events finish in downtown Easton at the confluence of the Delaware and Lehigh Rivers, where participants and spectators gather for a post-race celebration.

The Experience

The marathon and half marathon follow the historic D&L Trail along the Lehigh River. Participants can expect a gentle net elevation drop and surfaces of fine gravel and paved trail sections.

Scenic river views, crisp autumn air, and joint-friendly terrain make this a fast and memorable point-to-point course.

Why We Run

We proudly welcome back St. Luke’s University Health Network as presenting sponsor — a regional leader in wellness and trail advocacy.

Proceeds benefit Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor Inc., supporting heritage and environmental programming and continued development of the 165-mile D&L Trail from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol.

Important Dates

  • September 25: Deadline for personalized race bibs (Relay teams included)
  • October 13: Guaranteed shirt size deadline
  • November 12, 11:59 p.m. EST: Online registration closes (or when capacity is reached)
