Wenatchee Marathon
The Wenatchee Marathon is a multi-distance road and trail running event organized by TedDriven. The course runs largely on traffic-free paved loop trails along the Columbia River and offers extensive views of the Cascade Mountains. Distances include:
- Marathon (26.2 miles)
- Half Marathon
- 10K
- 5K
All categories welcome walkers. The marathon and half marathon are USATF sanctioned and USATF certified, and the marathon is a Boston Marathon qualifying course. Pets, strollers, and other tethered equipment are not allowed for participant safety.
Support on course includes aid stations roughly every 2 miles stocked with Skratch energy drink, water, Vaseline, and bandages; two stations supply energy gels. Timing uses embedded ChronoTrack bib chips and results are posted promptly. Finishers in all events receive a custom finisher medal; medals and age group awards are available at the awards area. Tech shirts and other apparel are offered for purchase during registration with limited on-site availability.
Packet pickup is provided before race day at a local running store. Race-day logistics note parking is available east of Wenatchee Avenue and that Wenatchee Avenue will be closed to traffic near the event center. First aid is available at the finish area with EMT support on hand for emergencies.
TedDriven directs event proceeds to cancer research and local community causes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
