WE ARE GOING CUPLESS FOR 2020!
This change is consistent with our commitment to sustainability and the environment. Seeing how much waste events like a marathon generate, we felt compelled to do all that we can to minimize our impact on the environment while still providing an efficient and enjoyable race experience for our runners and walkers.
Find out what that means for you on our INFO PAGE.

NEW BEND MARATHON INITIATIVES FOR 2020
Accepting the challenge of taking on the Bend Marathon was no easy decision but one thing we knew for sure was that we wanted to turn it into an event that gave back to the community of Bend and took better care of the environment. We want to be a leader in the sport of road running in sustainability and to do that we're needing to make some changes. Some will be easy, other's not so easy.
Over the next few months we'll be rolling out changes to how we operate in order to be better stewards of our town and our planet. We hope you'll agree that it's the right thing to do.
