Mississippi Blues Marathon

The Mississippi Blues Marathon takes place in Jackson, Mississippi, along the Pearl River. Four road distances are offered: a 5K, a 10K, a half marathon (13.1 miles), and a full marathon (26.2 miles), with the half and full marathon both available as solo entries or as a relay. The riverside course gives runners a consistent scenic backdrop across all four distances. With relay options for the longer races, the event opens up the half and full marathon distances to teams as well as individual runners, making it a flexible race weekend for groups and solo runners alike.
