Bismarck Marathon
North Dakota's longest-running marathon. ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ
Sept. 19th
A marathon takes a lot more than runners to make it to the finish line! ๐โโ๏ธ๐
A huge THANK YOU to our contributing sponsors who helped make the 2026 Bismarck Marathon possible! From providing post-race food for our runners and meals for our hardworking volunteers, to supplying equipment, an RV, accommodations, emergency support and other race-day essentials - these businesses stepped up in a BIG way.
There are so many moving pieces behind an event of this size, and the generosity and support of our community partners helps us create the experience our runners, volunteers and spectators deserve.
We appreciate each and every one of you! ๐

Talk about commitment to the Bismarck Marathon! ๐ณ
Ross (left) has now run the Bismarck Marathon 36 consecutive years, making him our longest-running consecutive participant! Right behind him is Tracy (right), who just completed his 20th straight year.
Ross is looking to keep that record goingโฆbut Tracy is slowly sneaking up on him. ๐
Two incredible streaks and a whole lot of miles. Thank you both for making the Bismarck Marathon an annual tradition! ๐๐ผ

A big thank you to H.A. Thompson & Sons for sponsoring our Create Your Own Sign station at the Bismarck Marathon! ๐๐ผ
Tons of spectators stopped by to make their own signs and show some love for their friends, family and ALL the runners out on the course. ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธโค๏ธ
Thereโs nothing like seeing a familiar face, and a homemade sign, when you need that extra boost!
Thank you, H.A. Thompson & Sons, for helping our spectators bring the energy on race day!

๐ธ A FINISH WORTH REMEMBERING!
After crossing the finish line, runners had the chance to capture their accomplishment at our Post-Race Photo Op presented by Breakaway Functional Medicine!
Runners could pose with their official race time displayed, making for the perfect keepsake after all those miles. ๐
And it was a popular stop! Nearly 450 photos were taken at the station throughout race day! ๐คฏ
A huge thank you to Breakaway Functional Medicine for helping us give runners another way to celebrate and remember their Bismarck Marathon finish! ๐
