The DENFIT Winter Soldier is a winter marathon run on Saturday, February 27, 2027 in Cape Vincent, New York, on the shore of the St. Lawrence River. The course is a flat out-and-back from Cape Vincent Recreation Park to Tibbetts Point Lighthouse, and the marathon covers it four times, checking in between laps. The start is at 8:00 am. The lighthouse turnaround has a sheltered aid station with water, food and toilets. Back at the park there are hot showers, light refreshments and a fire outside. Every finisher gets a medal and a t-shirt, and marathoners also receive the DENFIT Spear. The marathon field is capped at 100 runners, and the race is not cancelled for weather unless New York State issues a travel ban. Safety lights are required.
