Description
Marathon High is a free after-school program that transforms the lives of high school students across Northeast Florida. Over four months, teens train to complete a half-marathon using the proven run-walk-run method. Coaches run alongside students during weekly practices and long weekend runs, guiding them to build confidence, resilience, and lifelong healthy habits.
Because the program is completely free, Marathon High removes barriers that might prevent students from participating—providing proper running shoes, training gear, nutrition support, race entries, and more.
Our upcoming Virtual Half-Marathon, benefiting Marathon High, will ensure we can continue empowering young people in our community for years to come—helping them set big goals, achieve them, and carry those lessons far beyond the finish line.
