CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - The Novant Health Charlotte Marathon is returning on Saturday, November 14, 2026, and organizers are preparing for the largest event in its history. This marks the first year the marathon, half marathon, and 5K will be operated by the Charlotte Sports Foundation.
Starting and finishing in Uptown, the popular course offers runners a scenic tour of Charlotte’s most iconic neighborhoods, including Myers Park, Dilworth, South End, NoDa, and Plaza Midwood. Having sold out two consecutive years, the race is now one of the fastest-growing marathons in the country. Best of all, participation supports a vital cause close to home, with proceeds benefiting Novant Health’s Hemby Children’s Hospital.
