Dear 2025 Outer Banks Marathon Weekend Participants,
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we have taken time to regroup and reassess the next steps following the cancellation of the 2025 event. Our team has worked diligently to determine the best way to honor your commitment and participation.
We are pleased to share that all registered runners will be offered a complimentary deferral to the 2026 TowneBank Outer Banks Marathon Weekend, which also marks our 25th Anniversary Celebration. The event will take place November 6–8, 2026, and will include the Marathon, Half Marathon, 8K/5K, and the Color Fun Run.

The mission of the Outer Banks Sporting Events is to organize sporting events and competitions, promote healthy living lifestyles, and provide financial resources for needed relief and education, all while contributing to the economic health of the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Outer Banks running events have become very popular, due, in part, to the legendary beauty of the area. But the athletes who run Outer Banks races also have come to expect the kindness of support that they receive from the residents during their time here. Of course, many locals run these races too, and plenty of friendships have been forged along the miles. But let's not forget the after-race parties! They are a big draw for the fun and comradery that come as a natural part of the euphoria (and beer!) after each race. Lots of participants add to the festivities by dressing up for these Outer Banks runs: leprechauns, pirates and tutus (just because!), so feel free to express yourself while you're putting in those miles. To assure your place in these Outer Banks races, be sure to register early! And, by the way, plenty of our participants are walkers, so if you're new to these events, we want you to know that you'll feel just as much a part of the races as the runners do.
PLEASE NOTE! You MUST have your PHOTO ID or a BEER BAND to enter the post-race Beer Garden. Beer Bands can be acquired during each race's packet pick-up.
