AIDS Marathon

The National AIDS Marathon Training Program is geared to both beginners and experienced runners.  The full marathon program starts with three miles of running and walking, and then gradually increases in distance.  The half marathon program starts with just one mile.  Whether you have never run a step, or you are a seasoned marathoner who wants to improve your personal best, this program will help you succeed. It’s a great way to get fit, have fun, and make a tremendous difference in the lives of people living with AIDS.
