the overGRound marathon/relay

Get ready to hit the ground running at the overGRound, a unique celebration of fitness and community spirit in the vibrant city of Grand Rapids! This is an event where everyone is invited – whether you're an avid marathoner, a team relay enthusiast, or just love to cheer on friends.

Set for November 3rd, 2024, at 8 am, we're taking you through the heart of Grand Rapids, from buzzing coffee shops to scenic parks, before looping back to the finish line at Rosa Parks Circle.

Feel the city's pulse beneath your feet in a one-of-a-kind race that's as much about community cheer as it is about personal milestones. It's mostly self-supported, but with the camaraderie of our running clubs and the joyous back-pat at the finish line, you'll never run alone. Whether you sprint, jog, volunteer, or simply holler support, join us to create an overGRound experience that's truly out of the ordinary! #theoverGRound2024
