LA Half-Marathon Charity Challenge and the LA Marathon: Sunday, March 8, 2026

The Marathon and Half-Marathon both start at Dodger Stadium and end on Avenue of the Stars in Century City. You can join us to run the full marathon (26.2 miles) or the Charity Challenge Half-Marathon (13.1 miles — you can run or walk). Each team member is asked by the LA Marathon to raise $650 for the UCLA Jonsson Cancer Center Foundation. The Marathon will be providing support, training and nutrition tips as well as a cool completion medal when you cross the finish line in Century City!

UPDATE: The 26.2 mile full marathon is SOLD OUT!  There are only a few spots available for the Half-Marathon (as of January 12, 2026), so please register ASAP.  To register for the Charity Challenge Half-Marathon, please click here.
