Nicknamed “The People’s Marathon,” the Marine Corps Marathon (MCM) is a globally recognized race with no qualifying standards and no prize money—designed to celebrate commitment, community, and the human spirit.

Hosted by the U.S. Marine Corps and run through the streets of Washington, D.C. and Arlington, VA, MCM draws nearly 30,000 in-person athletes and thousands more virtually, with an estimated 100,000+ spectators and media coverage spanning 122M+ impressions.

This is more than a race—it’s a national tradition, with active-duty service members, veterans, civilians, and international runners uniting in an atmosphere of honor, pride, and inspiration. Activation opportunities span the MCM Health & Fitness Expo (80,000+ attendees), the Kids Run (2,600 youth), Finish Festival, VIP hospitality, and more.

With unmatched access to a patriotic, service-minded, and high-HHI audience, MCM offers brands a powerful platform for both emotional connection and massive visibility.
