It’s time for weeks and months of training – whether they were yours or someone you know – to finally pay off at the Macon Music Half Marathon. In its third year, the race will take place on Saturday, November 22, 2025, beginning at 8:00 a.m. in Carolyn Crayton Park.

“More than 500 people from eight states will run through our community, and we’re excited they get to see many of the sites which make it so special,” says Mayor Lester Miller.

“We have strong running community here in Macon-Bibb County, and we’re hoping this will bring more people to the sport and attract more people to our city,” said Macon Tracks President F.M. Barron.

Not running but still want to support the runners? Stake out your spot along the route to give the runners high-fives and cheer them on!

“Let’s show these athletes how much we support the hard work they put into training and welcome the visitors to our great city!” adds Mayor Miller.

The route will be similar to previous years (see map above), and it will feature live music as you go past historic musical locations, such as the Big House Museum. Again this year, the finish line will be at home plate at the Historic Luther Williams Field. Runners and their friends and families will be able to enjoy more live music on the field along with food and drinks.
