St. Joseph Missouri Marathon

St. Joseph, Missouri Marathon, now in its third year, is staged at Civic Center Park in downtown St. Joseph.

The event offers five distances: full marathon (26.2 miles), half marathon (13.1 miles), 10K, 5K, and a five-person marathon relay, with courses that run through the city’s historic parkways and landmarks. The full and half routes are USATF-certified, offering a scenic but challenging ride from north to south with multiple legs in the relay.
