Wineglass Marathon
Wineglass Marathon is a flat marathon in Corning, USA, held each October. A gently net-downhill point-to-point through the Finger Lakes valleys — one of the East Coast's favourite PB courses. Early October is 4-14C. Flat courses like Corning's reward metronomic pacing — the danger is going out faster than goal pace because it feels cheap early.
