Greater St. Louis Marathon 2027

The Greater St. Louis Marathon is a spring race weekend held in downtown St. Louis. The marathon, half marathon, and 10K begin simultaneously at 7:00 a.m. A 5K follows at 7:30 a.m., and a 1-mile family fun run starts at 9:00 a.m. This schedule accommodates dedicated marathoners, shorter-distance participants, walkers, and families. The marathon and half marathon commence and conclude downtown, with the finish line festival located outside St. Louis SC’s CITYPARK. Participants in the full and half marathons who require an early start may apply for one hour before the main field, contingent on a recent finish time. This group will have lead and tail vehicles. Packet pickup occurs before race day at the Greater St. Louis Marathon Expo in Ballpark Village. There, registered runners receive their bibs, race details, and race bags. The weekend also features the National Running Club Championships & Rally, concluding with live music and local food at the after-party.
