Tri-Cities Marathon
The Tri-Cities Marathon is an annual distance running event held in Richland, Washington. Based at the Riverfront Hotel, the event offers multiple race categories including a full marathon, a half marathon, and a team relay. The marathon course is a 26.2-mile route that utilizes the Pasco river trail, crosses the Cable Bridge into Kennewick, and follows a mixture of trails and bike lanes through Columbia Park and towards Chamna Park before returning to Richland.
The half marathon is a USATF certified 13.1-mile out-and-back course that takes participants into Pasco on a paved trail. The marathon course is approximately 400 feet of total elevation gain and is mostly flat, with some rolling sections during the final 8 miles.
Available distances:
- 26.2 Miles (Individual Marathon)
- 26.2 Miles (Marathon Relay for teams of up to four)
- 13.1 Miles (Half Marathon)
The event provides full course support with aid stations positioned approximately every 2 miles. These stations offer water, electrolytes, energy gels, and snacks. The race utilizes automatic chip timing, and the courses are marked with spray chalk, cones, and signage. Participants receive an event t-shirt and a finisher's medal. Special awards are presented to the top three male and female finishers in the individual distances, and custom prizes are available for age group winners and relay teams. The event also offers a wheelchair division for the marathon distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
