Experience the unparalleled scenery and Southern hospitality of the Mississippi River Marathon on February 7, 2026, featuring a Marathon, Half Marathon, Relay, 5K, and the unique Delta Double Down—all starting at 8:00 AM from Lake Village, Arkansas, and finishing in Greenville, Mississippi. As the only marathon in the Mississippi Delta, this USATF-certified Boston Qualifier offers runners a one-of-a-kind journey across the mighty Mississippi River, with aid stations stocked with GU, hot pizza, Shipley's donuts, and Doe’s Hot Tamales at the finish. Your participation directly supports children's education through donations to the Washington County and Southeast Arkansas Community Foundations.
With a 7-hour course cutoff, finisher medals for all distances (and two for Delta Double Down participants), plus free photo downloads and a Friday vendor expo, this event is a true celebration of community, health, and Delta spirit. Whether you're chasing a BQ, tackling your first half, or savoring the 5K with family, the Mississippi River Marathon delivers an unforgettable experience where every mile tells a story of resilience, generosity, and epic river views.
