Virginia Creeper Marathon... they recently had to raise entry to $15. While it doesn't have the extras (tech t shirt, entertainment, expo, etc.) expected by most modern marathoners, it is put on quite competently by the local running club. Note-- field size is capped at 100.

Sounds like fun. I'm going to check that out.
Similar to the Roxbury marathon in connecticut. $15 entry and the field capped at 125 which ends up at less than 100 come race day. BQ certified but very hilly and in December.
