Fast-growing events in the fastest-growing city in the southeast! Novant Heath Charlotte Marathon weekend features FOUR events – there’s literally a race for every goal and pace. Join us for the Queen City’s only full marathon, half marathon, marathon relay, or the Chick-fil-A 5k.

All Novant Health Charlotte Marathon events start and finish in Uptown Charlotte, North Carolina. The scenic, winding event courses takes you through some of Charlotte’s most historic, eclectic, and Instagram-able neighborhoods. From the heart of the Center City, to tree-lined boulevards, arts and cultural districts, and more; you’ll see it all on your way as you literally Run Charlotte!

The course for the half is a loop in which the starting and finish lines are one block from one another. The scenic route takes runners through the city streets of Charlotte past sights such as historic Myers Park and Bank of America Stadium, the home of the National Football League’s Carolina Panthers. Past participants describe the Charlotte Half Marathon 13.1-mile course as “rolling” and “hilly,” with a few moderate climbs in elevation as well as plenty of downhill stretches, with a flat finish. The course starts half-marathon runners off at the same starting line and time as the full marathoners, with the finish at Charlotte’s Caldwell Street, between Lexington and East Morehead Streets.
