The 49th Annual Lincoln Marathon & Half Marathon |
Online registration is currently closed as of 6 PM April 30, 2026. There will be a very limited number of registrations available at the Expo on 5/2/26. $180 for Full Marathon and $160 for Half Marathon. Absolutely no registrations will be accepted after 4 PM Central Time on 5/2/26.
You may still upgrade to the Full Marathon online ($20) or Defer to 2027 online ($20) until 4 PM Central Time on 5/2/26. If you have picked up your packet, you can no longer defer your registration to 2027.
All other changes must be made IN PERSON at the Expo prior to 4 PM Central Time on 5/2/26. No one is monitoring the Lincoln Marathon online Help Desk on Saturday, so replies will be significantly delayed.
Nebraska's premier marathon is back with many of the unique features that have made it so special for 49 years. In addition to a spectacular course through the streets of Lincoln, we are pleased to once again offer an Expo, Awards Ceremony and After-Party. Our event caters to runners of all ages and abilities, from elite runners to everyday athletes looking to accomplish a fitness goal. We can't wait to see you again in 2026! There is a strict 6 hour course limit for the marathon.
