CHICK-FIL-A CHARLOTTE KIDS MARATHON PROGRAM
The Charlotte Marathon is an event for everyone, including kids! There are two participation options for kids, allowing the whole family to enjoy race events together.

Participating kids will run 25.2 miles over the 7 weeks leading up to race day. They will then join Charlotte Marathon festivities to run their final program mile on race day and finish out with 26.2 total miles.
