Flying Pig Marathon
The SUDC Foundation is thrilled to be back for a 2nd year in a row as an official Charity Partner of the 2026 Flying Pig Marathon Weekend!
Why the Flying Pig? Here’s why:
The Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon has been voted the Best Marathon in America by the 2024 USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice travel award, among 20 marathons selected by a USA TODAY panel as the best in the country.
“For the past 25 years, we have watched the Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon grow into a top #10 U.S. running festival,” said Mayor Aftab Pureval, City of Cincinnati. “Now America has spoken with their votes in the USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice awards by naming the Flying Pig Marathon as the #1 Marathon in America. We are proud of our hometown marathon and welcome all of the participants to Cincinnati this May.”
The Flying Pig Marathon is a beautiful course that “flies” along the streets of Cincinnati, Covington, Newport, Mariemont, Fairfax, and Columbia Township. The course presents a well-balanced, diverse tour of some of the best neighborhoods in the area.
The SUDC Foundation is offering discounted race entries for both the Flying Pig Marathon and Half Marathon!
The fundraising minimum is $2,000 for the Marathon and $1,000 for the Half. All runners are responsible for paying their own registration fee.
