@ The Berkshires, MA
The 3rd Annual Memorial Day Marathon Races will take place on May 26-27, 2012 with the start and finish at the iconic Tanglewood Music Center in the beautiful Berkshires of Western Massachusetts. Come experience The Berkshires, a true slice of Americana featuring the quaint towns, beautiful views, and friendly people depicted in Norman Rockwell's art and James Taylor's music, as we celebrate running - a true American pastime - on the national holiday honoring our fallen soldiers.
The weekend will feature The Memorial Day Marathon & 1/2 Marathon, The Berkshires 10K & 5K races and a Pre Race Expo at Tanglewood. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund.
