The "Bolt" Loyalty Award
All participants who register for four years in a row, (2023 - 2026) will receive "The Bolt” (pictured below) representing running on Kern County Energy, after they cross the Finish Line in 2026. If you participated in 2024 & 2025 then you will be 75% there when you sign up for the 2026 race of their choice.
Bakersfield Marathon Legacy Club Continues in 2026!
A free program for participants who run an event with us every year, the Legacy Club will continue to gain more benefits and exclusivity with each passing year. If you ran in our inaugural 2016 race and became a Legacy Club Member in 2017, and have run with us every year since — then don’t miss out on continuing to be a part of this elite club! Run with us in 2026 and continue your legacy! Scroll to the bottom to see the latest perk our legacy runners will receive.
Once again, in 2026, you can opt to register for our 2026 Virtual Race to keep your Legacy Club status. This is a great way to keep your Legacy Club status intact if you have a conflict on race day. Please note, legacy runners who sign up but then give their bib to someone else, will be disqualified as Legacy Runners going forward.
Those who are signed up for the 2026 event are listed in the link here: Legacy Club Members. If you think your name should be listed but isn’t, or if it appears on the wrong list, please reach out to directors@activebakersfield.org.
All past Legacy Club members, who signed up for the first seven years but have yet to sign up for the 2025 event, are listed in the link here: Legacy Club Eligible
If you believe you should be listed but are not or your name is on the wrong list, please contact directors@activebakersfield.org. This list was last updated at 8pm on April 25th, 2025.
