About the Event

97th Annual running of Mount Marathon

Friday, July 4, 2025. 

 

Join the community of Seward for the 95th annual running of the Mount Marathon Race on Friday, July 4, 2025.

The men’s and women’s course is a grueling 1.5-mile climb up, and back down, Alaska’s majestic and treacherous Mount Marathon. Runners from around the world join Seward residents and runners from around Alaska, in pursuit of a common goal: to win, place, or simply complete this iconic footrace.

Mount Marathon awaits you, and future generations of bold mountain runners!
