Become a Sponsor

In 2010, the inaugural Mankato Marathon took Mankato by storm with overwhelming community support and an amazing 2,200 runners. In 2011 we grew to nearly 4,000 runners from 30 states and our race started to evolve with unique additions like our Cheer Zones and the Sport Psych Team – the first in the nation.

We want to keep this momentum growing. That’s where you come in. We’re looking for great sponsors like you to help support this incredible event. As a sponsor you’ll be associated with a premier event that is receiving attention from participants all over the country. You can be proud about supporting the Mankato Marathon which is an event that promotes good health and benefits our community.

Mankato Marathon 2013 Charity Program

In 2013, the Mankato Marathon is striving to give back to the community that has so generously supported our races. This year 3 charities including Girls on the Run, BackPack Food Program and Project for Teens have been chosen. In addition to having champion runners raising pledges, the three programs have potential to raise additional dollars through registrations. Registrants will be able to elect to donate to any or all of the programs when they register for a Mankato Marathon race.
