About the PeaceHealth Appletree Marathon
The course passes through Fort Vancouver, along Officer's Row, past Pearson Airport and the historical Old Apple Tree, then follows the Columbia River for a stretch. The terrain is road and the route is flat throughout, which draws runners chasing qualifying times. There is a lot to look at, and the historical surroundings give the whole thing an unusual texture for a road race.
Several distance options share the same general course corridor, so the start area has a range of runners out at different points in their morning. The shorter distance runs the evening before the longer distances, which gives marathon and half marathon runners a chance to shake out their legs on the actual course ahead of race day.

The PeaceHealth Appletree Marathon has been held every year since at least 2018. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
