- The Tucson program includes a marathon, half marathon, 10K and 5K on November 8.
- A two-day expo and community activities will precede the race weekend.
Garmin Ltd.'s Marathon Series returns to Tucson on Sunday, November 8, with organizers expecting about 4,000 runners, up from 2,700 last year, according to KGUN 9. The event gives the company a prominent consumer-facing touchpoint in its fitness and outdoor activities.
Tucson event takes center stage
The November 8 program will combine a full marathon, half marathon, 10K and 5K. The longer races start at 6:30 a.m. local time, followed by the 5K at 6:50 a.m., with the course starting and finishing near the Tucson Convention Center.
Runners and visitors can attend an expo on Friday, November 6, and Saturday, November 7. The schedule also includes community activities and a finish-line festival, extending the event beyond the races themselves.
Fitness visibility remains in focus
Garmin sponsorship director Steve Lovell described the series as a celebration of health, wellness and fitness, while local organizers highlighted Tucson's appeal as an outdoor destination. For investors, the event illustrates the company's continued consumer engagement around running, training and outdoor participation; it does not by itself establish a change in earnings expectations.
