Our Events

The Zeigler Kalamazoo Marathon is more than just miles. It’s a weekend full of connection, celebration, and community spirit. From the excitement of the starting line to the joy at the finish, every event brings people together in motion and in mission.

Full Marathon

Test your endurance and soak in the vibrant energy of Kalamazoo and Portage with 26.2 unforgettable miles. From cheering spectators to scenic neighborhoods, the full marathon delivers a course that’s as rewarding as it is challenging.

Half Marathon

The Half Marathon offers the perfect balance of challenge and fun. This 13.1-mile course gives runners a taste of the marathon experience with a more manageable distance, all while taking in the same great community support and lively atmosphere.

Marathon Relay

Run as a team and experience the course together! The Full and Half Relays are great for groups of friends, coworkers, or family members who want to share the miles and the memories. With smooth handoffs and plenty of crowd energy, it’s teamwork at its most inspiring.

10K

The 10K is a favorite for those who want more than a 5K but aren’t quite ready for double-digit miles. This fast, fun race winds through local streets and is ideal for intermediate runners or anyone looking to set a new pace. Expect high-fives, great views, and strong finish-line vibes.

5K Run & Walk

powered by Parker Aerospace

Perfect for first-timers, families, and walkers, the 5K Run & Walk brings all the race-day excitement with a short and sweet 3.1-mile course. Whether you’re jogging for joy or walking in support of a cause, this event is all about showing up and moving forward.

PNC Kids' 1K

Little legs, big dreams! The PNC Kids’ 1K is a safe, fun run for our youngest athletes to feel the thrill of race day. With plenty of cheers and a finisher’s medal waiting at the end, it’s a moment they (and you) won’t forget.
