Course
Two separate point-to-point courses, both flat to gently downhill with few turns. The USATF-certified marathon starts in downtown Allentown, runs south down Martin Luther King Jr Drive and through Little Lehigh Parkway before heading east. The half starts on Main Street in Bethlehem and joins the D&L Trail beside the Lehigh River, finishing at Scott Park in Easton.
