The Gettysburg North-South Marathon is a Boston-certified course that begins and ends at the Eisenhower Conference Center. After leaving the complex and turning left onto Emmitsburg Road, the course winds through the picturesque, hilly back roads of southern Adams County. It crosses the historic Mason-Dixon Line before reaching a turnaround point in Maryland.

This is a two-loop course, with the first 13.1 miles shared with the Gettysburg Blue-Gray Half Marathon. Race is professionally timed by 2L Race Services.
