2019 Pittsburgh Half and Marathon Weekend is May 3-5, 2019

I did it, and you should, too!  Sign up for the 2019 Pittsburgh Marathon today (Aug. 6) and you'll get the best price. There's an event for everyone and their dog! 5K, Half, Marathon, Relay, Kids Races, Pet Walk, etc. The entire weekend is full of fun and races.

I got the half marathon for $65. The price goes up in $1 increments all day, but won't be more than $80 if you register today. I'm excited to be running this race in the Steel City next May. It's going to be more hills than my usual races, but there's plenty of time to train.

Over the Rivers and Bridges

The Pittsburgh Marathon and Half courses include lots of bridges — because Pittsburgh has three rivers. The races are a eye level tour of a unique city. Pittsburgh is a city that acts like a small town. Everyone is friendly, and you'll see plenty of spectators as you run through different neighborhoods. Your tour includes running past the stadiums where the Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, and Penguins play their home games. Here we go!

USATF Half Marathon Championships

The course is USA Track & Field Certified. In fact, the men's and women's 2019 USATF Half Marathon Championships will be held Sunday, May 5, 2019. Last year, at the 2018 national championship race held in Pittsburgh, Chris Derrick won the men's title in 1:02:37. The women's title went to Aliphine Tuliamuk for finishing in 1:10:04.
