Course

 
Join us at Maryland's hardest and biggest road race! 92 miles of racing with police-moderated intersections along the entire course. Approachable medium course of 48 miles at a more casual pace. Fully stocked aid stations and mechanical and SAG van support. A finisher medal & post race meal for everyone!
 
GFNY Maryland race week activities take place in downtown Cambridge. You will be picking up your race packets and enjoying the post-race festivities, music, awards, and the post-race meal at the green space at Race Street & Cedar Street.
 
GFNY Maryland starts at the aptly-named Race Street in the heart of Cambridge’s downtown. 
 
After leaving Cambridge, you enter Dorchester County, a place of natural, unspoiled beauty, with waterways, marshlands, farm fields, woods, and quaint small towns. Enjoy views of beautiful Chesapeake Bay coastline. Race past the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, a 27,000-acre place of striking marshlands, bald eagles, great blue herons, and more. You will also pass through the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Historical Park.
 
The race course is flat and fast, with occasional high winds. GFNY Maryland boasts GFNY’s flattest course, making it fast for athletes who are working together in a peloton, but is also a very beginner-friendly course with great support along the entire race route!

Long route riders repeat the loop a 2nd time before heading back to downtown Cambridge.
