Known as the "Biggest Small Town Race in the USA", the Eau Claire Marathon impresses runners year after year. The Eau Claire Marathon is well organized, supports our community, is family-friendly, and has a beautiful course which makes this one of the BEST races in the Midwest. 

Eau Claire Marathon Race Weekend will take place April 26-27, 2025 in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. The weekend includes a Boston qualifying marathon, a half marathon, a four-person marathon relay, a 5k, a 10k, the Cheri Uelmen's Fantastically Fun Kid's Run, Cheri's Crazy Challenge, and, a G-Eau Big and G-Eau Bigger Challenge. Not a runner? The Eau Claire Marathon has a competitive walking division too! New this year - a Corporate Team Challenge that allows employers to provide a community-supported wellness option encouraging health and building team camaraderie

The Eau Claire Marathon Race Series mission is to organize, promote, and deliver running events that safely create running, social, and charitable opportunities in the community.

Eau Claire can't say no to a party, and the Eau Claire Marathon is no exception. With bands, DJs, and plenty of designated cheering parties, the love and encouragement of the city will give you that extra push you may need. If you’re not running, there’s still plenty of fun to be had at this marathon. Cheer along the Chippewa and Eau Claire Rivers or celebrate with your friends at our local breweries. You definitely won't want to forget your homemade sign and cowbells to cheer on the runners with.
