Lace-up for a truly sweet running experience at the Donot Stop Half Marathon (5k/10k) in picturesque Saint Paul, MN, on Saturday, March 28, 2026. This popular annual event, presented by Bodies Race Company, offers a "fast and flat" road course through local parks, designed to be enjoyable for all paces and fitness levels. Whether you're aiming for a personal best in the Half Marathon, tackling the 10K or 5K, or joining the untimed 1 Mile run or Kids Dash, you'll find a supportive and engaging atmosphere.

The Donot Stop Half Marathon is more than just a race; it's a family-friendly celebration of fitness and fun. The event fosters an encouraging, affordable, and inclusive community, complete with vendors and an after-party. Packet pickup is conveniently available on race day morning, starting at 6:30 am, with the National Anthem and race start at 8:00 am. Can't make it in person?
