Wisconsin’s premier east coast marathon is coming back for the 14th edition in 2026!  This out-and-back course features amazing views of Lake Michigan’s shoreline as you run from Manitowoc to Two Rivers and back.  Come experience the Maritime Capital of Wisconsin! The Maritime Marathon is a race for runners by runners.  The course is flat, fast and a Boston Qualifier. Four events are offered: marathon,  half marathon, a four person relay and the 5 Nautical Mile Run.

Did you know that the Maritime Marathon is a race in which all proceeds benefit a local non-profit's? To date we have raised and donated over $225,000 to local charities.  Not only are you bettering yourself while running the Maritime Marathon, but you are also making an impact in the Manitowoc - Two Rivers community by supporting a very worthy cause!
