About
Bend Marathon & Half is run in Bend, Oregon, on April 11, 2027, with the starts spread across the morning: the marathon (26.2 miles) at 7 a.m., the half marathon (13.1 miles) at 8, the 10K at 8:15, the 5K at 8:30 and a kids race (1 mile) at 11 a.m.
Spreading five distances over four hours means a family can enter separate races and still be at the same finish area all morning. On the road, the marathon asks for a sixteen-week build with a weekly long run, and an April date puts most of that in winter, so plan the schedule now rather than in January. The half suits a first attempt at the distance or a spring tune-up, and the 10K is the sharper option if you would rather test speed than endurance.
