What it Means to #MoveForMore

At TCM, we know the power of movement for individuals, and for community. It connects, heals, and energizes us. 

The TC Half Marathon for More offers community-minded runners an opportunity to support TCM's mission  by running our charity-focused half marathon event that culminates on the marathon finish line. Entrants are required to donate or raise funds for Twin Cities In Motion by a select date before Marathon Weekend.

 

The TC Half Marathon for More field is limited to just 250 runners for TCM's cause, so commit early and help show what it means to move for more!

Support your run community, future generations, and a strong marathon weekend tradition by making it a Marathon Weekend for More!

Half the Distance, More Community Impact  

Join the Half Marathon for More Facebook Group to discuss fundraising and training as you prepare to tackle 13.1!

Community Support

All Half Marathon for More participants will receive a unique participant shirt and finisher medal to mark their race!

Reasons to Run with Us

What you'll be supporting...

Youth aged 18 and under run Twin Cities In Motion events free of charge. Over 18,000 kids have participated since this program's inception.

TC Kids Run Free

TCM is committed to making the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend a memorable and meaningful participant and community experience for years to come.

A Strong Marathon Weekend Tradition

Our best-in-class events and inclusive programs are where we gather to learn, motivate, and strengthen our connection through movement. 

A Vibrant Running Community

 We believe that experience-level, access, ability, or financial status shouldn’t be barriers to a movement journey. We support all movers because we believe that motion leads to more. 

Healthy Activities for All

In 2023, TCM moved into the Motion Center with the goal of expanding our programming and connecting with runners and walkers of all experience levels in the community.
