Putting on an urban marathon is expensive due to street closures, plus police and ambulance costs. The surrounding towns could easily support longer races, though. I've run Stu's run, a 30K that goes around the Wachusett Reservoir. It goes through West Boylston. The nearest half marathon I can think of is in Upton. Marathons are further away

Tell me more about Stu's. How bad is it with active traffic? I've always avoided running on country roads like that with no sidewalks but that loop sounds awesome.

It's a great race. It's on a Sunday, so traffic is light to begin with and most of the roads aren't busy at all. It's a little congested as you approach the finish in Clinton, but there's good traffic control and it didn't bother me
