Marathon Activities

The St George Marathon has been running since 1977 and accommodates over 7,000 participants. This year marks 38 years since its inception and has been an event that people look forward to year after year. This weekend there are a few activities you can do with the whole family in addition to the Marathon.

I AM ABLE & Move IT! Kids Run

Friday, October 5, 2018 beginning at 6pm, at Vernon Worthen Park (300 E 300 S), is the I AM ABLE Race, Walk and Roll event for children with disabilities. Each participant must have at least one person with them that does not have disabilities that can help them with the race. Register Here

After the I AM ABLE race is the Move IT! Kids Run. The Move IT! Kids Run is a great opportunity for the rest of the kids to get involved with the fun of the Marathon excitement. This race is only for the kids though, so parents just get to spectate. There are Move IT! mentors that will be available to help the smallest runners make it to the end. Register Here

Both races feature a 200 meter and a 1 mile race. Following the races there will be a dance party, chances to win prizes, bounce houses, face painting, and much more!
