Lake Tahoe Marathon Events

The Lake Tahoe Marathon Events span a three-day race weekend held around Lake Tahoe and described as running in two states. The program includes a range of individual races and multi-day challenge options that take place across Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Race formats listed for the weekend:

  • 5 km (two races)
  • 10 km
  • Half marathon (three races)
  • Marathon (three races)
  • 72-mile ultramarathon
  • 4-person ultra relay

Participants may enter single races or multi-day challenges, including the Tahoe Triple (three marathons in three days), the Tahoe Trifecta (three half marathons in three days), and the Tahoe Mountain Medley (one marathon, one half marathon, one 10K across the weekend). The 72-mile ultramarathon completes a full circuit of Lake Tahoe; a 4-person relay option splits that circuit among team members. The ultramarathon begins Saturday night and finishes alongside the weekend races.

Sunday races finish at Lakeside Beach in South Lake Tahoe. Several limited-time discounts are described: up to 20% applied automatically for three-day challenges, family and friends discounts (15% for three or more registrants, 10% for two), a 10% senior discount for ages 60 and over, and a 20% youth discount for ages 0-17. A 10% discount is also available for two-day registrations via an event-provided code.

Fundraising entries on the event page show amounts raised for event-related organizations, including one listing of $2,007.32 and another of $633.28. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
