Nationwide Children's Hospital Columbus Marathon

2021 Registration Paused

We typically open registration on February 1 for the upcoming year’s Marathon & ½ Marathon, but have paused those plans for 2021.

While vaccinations are on the rise and some bright spots are emerging, we do not yet have a clear indication of when events such as ours can resume, and registration for our October 17 event remains on hold.

We've long said it isn't fair to ask you to spend your hard-earned money on uncertainty, but if we can move forward you'll receive plenty of notice to sign up!

OFFICIAL TRAINING PLAN

CONTINUING FOR 2020 - FREE Runcoach Online Training, Plus Runcoach Gold!

Thousands of our participants in recent years have trained with Runcoach, an adjustable, customizable online plan.

Thanks to our friendship with these folks and their partnership with Garmin, we will again offer a free, personalized online training option to all 2020 Marathon & ½ Marathon registrants.

NEW this year, we will also offer Runcoach Gold, which includes support from world-class coaches, for $25.

You can sign up for either option when you register for this year’s race or whenever you are ready to begin training … yes, you still do need to train!
