Beyond the podium
Awards for the rest of us
Age Group Awards
Three deep, male and female, in each group: 19 & under, then 10-year groups through 80+. Age group placing is by chip (net) time.
Fastest Sackets Harbor residents
The fastest male and female current residents in each race win a $50 gift card from the Chamber of Commerce, good at any Chamber member. Hometown bragging rights: priceless. (Chip time.)
Most Improved
ALT Travel Co awards a $75 Visa gift card to the marathoner and half marathoner with the biggest improvement from 2026 to 2027. We match by name, so if yours changed since last year, tell us.
Back of the Pack
The final Marathon finishers, male and female, to beat the 6-hour cutoff each earn a $50 gift certificate to The Whiskey Coop, because grit deserves fried chicken. Speed is one way to finish a marathon; refusing to quit is another.
