ARTWORK REVEAL

Each year, the GOAL Foundation commissions artwork to use for the Ogden Marathon from a local artist in our community. We are excited to present the 2022 Ogden Marathon artwork, created by Erica Lyon!

Erica will be selling these prints along with her other beautiful artwork at the Fun and Fitness Expo (presented by Fleet Feet) and Autoliv Finish Line Festival! Click here to explore Erica’s artwork and learn more about the artist.

CAN'T RUN THIS YEAR? 

If you are unable to participate in the race this year, you may join the Ogden Marathon Facebook Group and see if someone is interested in purchasing your bib. All transfers must be completed in-person at the expo with both parties present with their IDs, and a $25 fee applies. Please visit the Solutions Desk during the expo to complete the transfer.

Unfortunately, this year we have had an issue with a few people getting scammed and sent fake registration confirmation emails. All event-related emails will come from admin@goalfoundation.com. We respectfully ask that you provide proof of registration (or email GOAL to verify status) to the person offering to meet you at the expo to purchase your bib.

If you know someone who is looking for a spot in the race, please warn them to use due caution before transferring funds to someone else. Thank you!

VOLUNTEER SHIFTS OPEN

Did you know there are ~1,000 volunteers who come out to help operate the marathon? We need your crew! Invite your co-workers, friends, neighbors, and family to come volunteer with us or show up on Race Day to line Grant Ave with cheers for your final mile to the finish line.

Have questions? Check out the FAQ page on our website or reply to this email and we'll be happy to help you out!
