Registration is now open!
Join us on Saturday, December 2, for the kids of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, at the largest single-day fundraising event for St. Jude. The St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend allows every runner to raise funds for our lifesaving mission.
Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food, so they can focus on helping their child live.
Questions? Contact us at marathon@stjude.org or (800) 565-5112.
Your support means so much to the kids of St.Jude.
St. Jude patient Katherin capped off a big year with a first-time run in the St. Jude Memphis Marathon® Weekend. As the half-marathon route took her through the St. Jude campus, the cancer survivor was flooded with memories of her treatment there.

I kind of like teared up a little bit, just because I saw the great emotion from families that were standing there and just saw the support. I don't know them, but you could feel the love and encouragement from each one of them, Katherin said.
