which is designed to bring added value to Madison County, added awareness and appreciation for art, and to raise funds to be divided between the Madison County Economic Development Council and local charities in the area of where the fish sculptures are displayed. Through this site you can participate in a silent bid on these unique sculptures - the final live auction slated for summer 2009.

The Madison Marathon - Sunday, August 2, 2009

Click Here To Register Now!The 2nd Annual Madison Marathon will once again be a road marathon on Top of Montana. In fact, it is the highest road marathon in America. The starting line is at 9,160 feet near Black Butte Mountain with runners peaking out at 9,587 on Monument Ridge before finishing at 8,550 feet at Clover Meadows. We guarantee it will be a run that you will remember forever.

The Madison Marathon is a limited support race. The distance from any town makes it impossible for us to host a highly supported race. We will have food/water stations as well as porta-johns along the way. However, runners should be prepared to carry some of their own water, food, gels, and whatever else they might need that other races often provide. All runners will be required to sign a waiver upon check in releasing us from any liability. No sign, no run, and your entry fee will be refunded. Registration closes Friday, July 31, 2009.
