Eau Claire Marathon

"A great race with awesome people running it. You can tell when a runner is in charge of a running event. The course is mostly scenic and even includes a bit of trail. Good sections of urban and scenic river views."

"Can’t say enough great things about this race. Beautiful, fast course. Fun town from the activities the night before to the post-race party. Well organized. If you want an easy small town race with great fan support, this is your best choice."

"Awesome races! My fourth time participating at an Eau Claire event, volunteering and running. Regardless of the weather, people are out there cheering! The organization committee is super friendly! If you’re looking at running in 50 states, this is the place to do it in Wisconsin! Highly recommend!"

"Incredibly beautiful course and even more incredible spectators cheering you on and interacting with the runners, it was so much fun!"

"I've been running this race and race weekend since they started. It was my first Marathon, Half-Marathon, back to back races (Sweet 16), and still my favorite race venue. The course is set up so that spectators are able to move around to see their runners while tracking them on an ap. The water stations are about every two miles. Some other great highlights include wonderful volunteers, running over multiple bridges with fantastic river views, the Blue Gold Mile, and even friendly neighborhood people handing out freeze pops."
