Holland Haven Marathon runners experience the beautiful coast of Lake Michigan as they travel from Grand Haven to Holland.  This USATF certified, point-to-point marathon follows Lakeshore Drive past the summer cottages right into downtown Holland.  The early September weekend allows for mild weather and a final opportunity to qualify for the 2026 Boston Marathon only one day before registration opens.

The Holland Haven Half Marathon begins at Camp Geneva along the Lake Michigan coastline.  Runners follow the scenic Lakeshore Drive past the beaches and into the City of Holland. The mostly flat and fast course is comprised of paved bike paths along Lake Michigan and Lake Macatawa.  This one-way race is one-of-a-kind in West Michigan, uniting communities in a unique event. 

The Holland Haven 8K race is a great segue into longer distance races. The 8K race is a flat, out-and-back course.  As a mid-distance road race, it is accessible enough for the novice runner yet incredibly challenging to experienced racers.  Participants are welcome to run or walk the race.

Join us for the Virtual Run and participate in the Holland Haven Full Marathon, Half Marathon or 8K race as your schedule permits, on any course of your choosing. Run, walk around the neighborhood or on a treadmill anytime.
