Med City Marathon to Grow with the Rochester Community in 2022

The 26th annual Med City Marathon looks to return to a normal year and aims to build a deeper connection with the local community. The event weekend is set for May 28-29.After a full rebrand and registration launch last November, the Med City Marathon, presented by Active PT, is looking healthy and will remain among the top marathon racing weekends in the Midwest.

A fresh look has been announced for the event this year! A complete rebrand has come with a new logo focused on representing the Community that supports the event. The blues and golds brighten the feel and the overall design represents some of our favorite parts of this race and Rochester. Look closely to see the river that runs through Downtown Rochester, then let it transform into the rolling hills and scenery that surround us and are a vital part of the Med City Marathon race course.

This year, we are really hoping to bring the community into this event. And we mean, all parts of the community. Brand new to the TerraLoco Health and Fitness Expo 2022, hosted Saturday May 29, we are inviting local artists to register! We want to see everyone represented and make this event more broad than it has been in the past. On Sunday, the Finish Line Festival will boast local bands and beverages, and the community is encouraged to come out and enjoy the festivities and support the racers in the Rochester community. These events are free and open to the entire Rochester community.

The event weekend will include a Boston Qualifying Marathon race, Marathon relays, half marathon, 5K race, and a kids 1K race. New to 2022, the Marathon, with the help of the City of Rochester and the Rochester Downtown Alliance, are promoting Corporate and Community 5K teams that allow local businesses, groups, and family and friends to support employee and team health and fitness.

The Med City Marathon race events will all be hosted out of the Mayo Civic Center. The race finish lines will be held downtown near Civic Center Drive and provide ample viewing opportunities. Registration is now open for all racing events during the weekend, and community members are encouraged to participate.
