Valentine's Heartbreaker Marathon & Relay

Valentine's Heartbreaker Marathon & Relay is held in Country Park in Greensboro, North Carolina on February 14, 2027, with a 10:00 a.m. start for all entries. You can take on the full marathon (26.2 miles) solo, or split it as a two-person or four-person relay. The event draws more than 1,000 participants and has a relaxed feel, with tents, entertainment and friends and family on site. Every participant gets a medal and refreshments afterward, FLEET FEET Greensboro/High Point is a lead sponsor, and signing up early is what guarantees you a hoodie.

A late morning start is unusual for a marathon and worth planning your breakfast and fueling around. Running it solo is a serious February undertaking that suits someone already carrying marathon fitness from a fall race; the relay legs, by contrast, are an approachable way for half marathon runners to get 26.2 miles covered as a team.
