Xenia Avenue Marathon

The Xenia Avenue Marathon & Half-Marathon, held annually in Champlin, Minnesota, offers a certified, flat, and fast course ideal for runners seeking a low-key race experience. The event features both marathon and half-marathon distances, with courses starting at Orchard Trail Park and running along the scenic Rush Creek Corridor Trail, including neighborhood loops on Xenia Avenue and Oak Grove Park. The marathon consists of multiple loops and out-and-back segments, while the half-marathon covers fewer loops.

The race supports the Champlin Park High School Cross Country Booster Club, with proceeds aiding local youth runners. All finishers receive medals, and top male and female runners earn awards. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
