Muddy River Half Marathon
The Muddy River Half Marathon takes place on May 2, 2026, in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. The event is based near 777 N. Main St. and finishes at the riverfront by Century Casino. The course highlights several local landmarks, including the Bill Emerson Bridge, Common Pleas Courthouse, and Old St. Vincent's Church.

Proceeds benefit local non-profit organizations that work to improve health and well being in the region. Since the event began, sponsors and participants have contributed more than $100,000 to local non-profits, and organizers plan to continue expanding beneficiaries across Southeast Missouri.
