About the 2024 Marathon…

The 28th Annual Museum of Aviation Foundation Marathon, Half-Marathon, 5K Run/Walk, and Para Athletes Race will be held at the Museum of Aviation on Saturday, January 13, 2024. The races will be run on Robins Air Force Base next to the Museum of Aviation. The marathon course is USA Track and Field certified making it a Boston Marathon qualifier. This great event was recognized by Well+Good as one of the top handcycle marathons in the US. Take a moment to read the article here.

Proceeds from the growing annual event benefit the Museum of Aviation, one of the largest education-focused aviation museums in the country. We are home to the National STEM Academy!

This is a great way to start the new year with a run on a brisk winter morning. Awards are given to the overall top three male and female finishers in each race, the overall top three male and female masters in each race, the top active duty military male and female in the marathon and the top three finishers in age categories. All participants receive a shirt. Those who register by December 29th will receive their shirt on race day. Runners registered after this date are not guaranteed a shirt. All Runners will receive a finisher’s medal.

We also offer a virtual option for those who want to participate but not able to attend the in-person event. All participants will receive a t-shirt, medal and race packet. Shirts, medals and packets can be picked up January 12th between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. at the Museum or a mail option is available.
