EAU CLAIRE MARATHON - 5K

Date: Saturday, April 27, 2024

Time: 6:30 PM

Start line: Forest Street

Finish line: Phoenix Park

Join us Saturday Night for the Eau Claire Marathon 5K! We are so excited to have one of our favorite bridges, the High Bridge, back on a race course! Our 5K course is very spectator-friendly.  Without leaving the Phoenix Park area, family, friends and community members can easily cheer runners on at the start, when they come down the bike trail along First Ave (mile 1.5), crossing Grand Ave footbridge (mile 2.5) and/or as they finish in Phoenix Park.

All participants will receive their race shirt at packet pick-up. Post race, runners will receive a finisher’s medal to commemorate their accomplishment at the Eau Claire Marathon 5K Run/Walk.

Overall and age group awards will be presented by Market & Johnson.
