Reasons to Join
The UNC Marathon Team strives to create a supportive environment that enables all of its members to achieve their running goals. Training for a half-marathon or marathon may seem daunting. Working together, we overcome the intimidation of these challenges and make it possible to attain positive results.
Many of our members have run either competitively or recreationally prior to joining the UNC Marathon Team. Others have never run a step before! Anyone looking for a new challenge is more than welcome to join our community. We are here to support you in achieving your running goals!
