Trinity Health Probility Ann Arbor Marathon: 5K • 10K • Half-Marathon • Full Marathon • Marathon Relay • Half-Marathon Walk runner reviews and race reports

Stories from runners who've been there.

From the joy of finishing to the tough moments — read what runners wrote themselves.

Race reports: 2
Christy PRan in 2012 · Finish time 5:28
“We walked, ran and shuffled to that finish line and eventually we made it!”

At the Ann Arbor Marathon, the runner initially followed a fast pace group, then struggled with heat, humidity, and knee pain. Alternating walking and running late on, they finished their first marathon in 5 hours 28 minutes.

Read the original on Rise. Run. Repeat.
JanetFinish time 1:40:46
“I finished with an official time of 1:40:46.”

At the Ann Arbor half marathon, the runner enjoyed scenery and memories along their alma mater's campus and the Huron River. The arboretum's steep hills slowed them, but a late acceleration brought a 1 hour 40 minute 46 second finish.

Getting to the finish

Same as start: 5th and Hill, Ann Arbor

Course finishes back at 5th and Hill. No transit station info provided.

Map

Start shuttle

A complimentary shuttle runs between the start line and Gallup Park Playground (miles 7/20 of the course), used for spectators and as the Marathon Relay exchange point. This is not a general runner start/finish shuttle from remote parking.

Transit card

Ann Arbor's TheRide (AAATA) charges a flat $1.50 adult fare payable by cash on the farebox or through passes bought online and at retail outlets; a 30-day unlimited pass is $45. There is no widely marketed reloadable tap card for general riders (employer/university MyCommuter and MCard programs are separate), so visitors should have small cash or use the mobile pass option for occasional rides to the marathon start.

READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

Ann Arbor in October averages 10°C, with a chill in the air.

Fingers and ears feel it first, so pack gloves and a beanie, and dress your torso in thin layers you can shed while running.

Public transportation does not reach the venue.

A private car or rental car is the only practical way to get there.

Registration is handled through the RunSignup platform.

For full marathon, the real race begins after 30km.

Running the first half 5–10 seconds slower than your target pace makes the second half easier to hold, and start taking gels early, before you get hungry.

The race starts at 08:00. Registration closes on October 4, 2026.

Times are local to Ann Arbor. Check the latest official information before the race.
