Juneau Marathon and Half-Marathon JTRR/NAOC
The event offers two USATF certified out-and-back road courses on Douglas Island along Douglas and North Douglas Highways, with certification codes valid through 12/31/2035. The courses run on the upland side of the road; roads remain open to vehicle traffic so runners must use the road shoulder, bicycle lane, or sidewalk and must not cross the white fog line into traffic.
Distances:
- Marathon $85
- Half-Marathon $60
The minimum age for both distances is 13 years. There are no official time limits; the course and finish area remain open until the last runner finishes. Sportstats will provide ankle strap chip timing; ankle straps must be returned to volunteers to avoid a fee. Online and onsite results will be available and participants can be tracked by name or bib.
Aid stations: three for the half-marathon, with two additional stations for the marathon. Aid stations provide water, Gatorade, and Gu, and are encountered twice on the out-and-back layout. Restroom facilities are at the start/finish area, near aid stations 1 and 3, and at two additional locations on the marathon course. Post race food will be available at the Pioneer Pavilion.
All finishers receive a finisher medal and a technical shirt. Shirt sizing is only guaranteed for registrations completed by June 1. Registration is online only. Packet pickup is available the day before at Nugget Alaskan Outfitter, and on race day at the Pioneer Pavilion with a cutoff fifteen minutes before each race. Awards for each distance include trophies and age group medals. The marathon is a Boston Marathon qualifying race and serves as the RRCA Alaska State Marathon Championship.
