Registration for Morgantown Marathon Weekend Experience continues

Registration continues for the Morgantown Marathon Weekend Experience, which features a full marathon, half marathon, 8K, fun run and other activities. WVU Medicine is the presenting sponsor of the event, which will take place Sept. 15-18.

Last year's Morgantown Marathon Weekend Experience, the inaugural event, attracted more than 1,200 runners from across the globe, as far away as Australia and Singapore, as well as runners from 36 states around the country.

Runners for the full marathon experienced a unique and diverse course, traversing all seven of the city’s wards, experiencing quiet country roads and a run through the West Virginia University campus.

Employees of WVU Medicine who would like to participate can enter the code "WVU20MED16" and receive a 20 percent discount.

The hashtag #RunMotown will serve as the promotion tag for the event across all social media networks, and runners and supporters are encouraged to use that hashtag when talking about or promoting the event.
