Race Description
The Marshall University Marathon is set to take place on Sunday, November 3, 2024, featuring a certified 26.2-mile marathon along with a half-marathon and a 3.25-mile run/walk. A unique highlight of the event is the tradition of carrying a football down the field to finish at the goal line.
This marathon is well-regarded for its flat and fast course, which makes it a prime opportunity for runners looking to qualify for the Boston Marathon. The race will take participants through scenic views of Huntington, passing key landmarks before culminating in a celebratory finish at the Marshall Football Stadium.
