You may run, walk, swim, or paddle one or more of the many events occurring during Lake Tahoe Marathon week. The marathon and half marathon are run along the west shore of Lake Tahoe and include challenging hills around spectacular Emerald Bay. The featured Sunday marathon starts on Commons Beach in Tahoe City and finishes on Pope Beach near South Lake Tahoe. The 10K begins at Inspiration Point and is a very scenic 99% downhill run. The beauty of Lake Tahoe will take your breath away even if the runs don’t!
