Cedar Rapids Marathon Weekend

At the Cedar Rapids Marathon, our mission is to deliver a world-class race experience that reflects the energy, resilience, and community spirit of Cedar Rapids. We believe a marathon should be more than just a race — it should be a celebration. A celebration of personal goals, of community pride, and of everything that makes this city special. Whether you’re running your first 5K, chasing a new personal best, or walking to support a cause close to your heart, this weekend is for you. We’re building an inclusive event that welcomes all ages, all backgrounds, and all paces. With a fast, flat course that winds through the beauty of Cedar Rapids, you’ll experience the best of our city — from vibrant neighborhoods to welcoming volunteers and enthusiastic spectators. This isn’t just a race. It’s a tradition in the making. One that strengthens our community, supports local businesses, partners with impactful charities, and inspires thousands to move forward — together. Join us. Be part of the start of something incredible.
