The Milwauke Lakefront Marathon Kid's Run has returned! Participating kids (ages 5-14) will run a total of 25 miles before race day - documented by a parent or adult.  On race day, participants will finish the last 1.2 miles of the marathon on the race course, crossing the same finish line as Lakefront Marathon participants! Check out the web page which gives information about the Kids Run.

Check to see if you are registered on our registration confirmation web page. If you don't see your name, see my helpful hints on our Pre-Race web page. For those of you who want to see a list of all runners, check out the new registered runners web page.

We also encourage you to participate in the 2010 race as a volunteer - it can be fun and rewarding and a good way to do a little "pay back" for all of the volunteers that make it possible for you to run other races. 

The Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon and Relay are Sold Out!  As anticipated, the relay sold out in February and the Marathon filled on April 21. Sold Out means that we have no space for additional entries - there is no waiting list and we cannot increase the limit. We would love to accommodate additional runners. However, our host municipalities limit the amount of space in the travel lane that they allow for the runners. Please note that we DO NOT allow for the transfer, sale, or deferral of entries. We know that some runners will register and not be in a position to run the race - we account for that in setting the entry limit.  If we allowed transfers, we would have to reduce the limit - and sell out earlier.

We will open registration for our October 2, 2011 race in late January. If you want to run the race in 2011, we encourage you to make your decision early on.

We will continue our popular e-mail newsletter in 2010.  We will again use the newsletter to provide important updates and information as race weekend approaches.  If you enter the race, you are automatically subscribed – if you hit the “un-subscribe” link, you will not receive important updates.  If you would like to subscribe in advance of registering or just want information about our race, use the subscribe link on this page.

As always, we welcome your suggestions and are happy to respond to your questions – lakefrontmarathon@sbcglobal.net
