Missoula Marathon Price Increase Coming Soon

If you're contemplating running the Missoula Marathon this summer, then you'd better sign up ASAP.

Starting on Monday, February 16, the price increases to $135 from $125.

The price continues to increase up until race weekend, too. It will stand at $135 until March 31, then go up to $145 on April 1 and to $150 on May 16.

Missoula Half Marathon prices increase, too. Here's the Half Marathon price schedule:

Current - February 15: $115
February 16 - March 31: $125
April 1 - May 15: $135
May 16 - Race Date: $140

I ran the last two Missoula Half Marathons. It took me until February both times to pull the trigger on signing up, and both times I kicked myself for not doing it earlier.

My advice? Just do it.

Nike didn't even pay me to name-drop them, but seriously, just sign up.

You will feel accomplished when you finish the half or full marathon. I know I did.

It's also been unseasonably warm in Montana this winter, so take advantage of the beautiful weather and run outside. Typically, I'm training for the half-marathon in 20 degrees and ice all over the road, but not this year.

If that's not a godsend, I don't know what is.
