    Tips

    June 28, 2025

    I think the map Komoot is built on has Race Point in the wrong place - maybe someone can double-check me on that. Anyway, it should be right about here; there's a huge rock that runners use as a turnaround point during the famous Mount Marathon race. If you continue past that rock, the terrain gets really sketchy, really quickly.



    Unless you really, REALLY understand what you're getting into, I recommend going to and from this point using what's called the hiker's trail or hiker's route — a much gentler ascent/descent than the grueling race course, from which unsuspecting hikers often have to be rescued.
