    Get ready to run, Birmingham! It’s time to see what we’ve become.

    BHM26.2 2024 is Alabama's only fully charitable race series, benefitting Magic Moments on Sunday, October 6th. Comprised of a full marathon, half marathon, 10k, 5k and fun run, BHM26.2's race series brings exciting courses to the Birmingham Metro area! With over 2,000 runners, this event is one of Alabama's most highly attended races with a family-friendly after party for participants and anyone supporting the cause! 

     Our specialized marathon course is a beautiful 13.1 looped run through our city unlike anything you’ve run before. With this flat and fast course, you're sure to earn that finisher's medal.

    Our half marathon  is a fast paced course with a lot of fun features and cheer stations along the way. 

    Runners looking for less mileage are in luck, as BHM26.2 features a 10K, 5K, and Fun Run options.

    The BHM26.2 fun run is geared towards children and patients who wish to be a part of our race weekend. Children under the age of 8 must be accompanied by an adult. This event is stroller friendly event.

    We also have an after party for everyone to enjoy right after you cross the finish line on Sunday! Join us for a post race meal, live music, drinks, a kids zone, and more!

    The best part? All proceeds benefit Magic Moments, the only wish-granting organization devoted exclusively to children in Alabama with chronic life-threatening or acute life-altering conditions. Lace up your shoes and join us October 6th as we run for the children who are chasing a cure.

For the love of all that is good and moisture wicking...

Though we try to be accurate and on top of things... Race details can change when we aren't lookin. And once in a while we simply make a mistake.
