About the actual event:
A Boston qualifier, the Bass Pro Conservation Marathon is a great race for first-time competitors  and seasoned runners/walkers looking for an event with a great course and first class amenities. Runners and walkers from all around Missouri and the world will participate in the Bass Pro Conservation Marathon Weekend events, which include a two day expo, 5K, half marathon, marathon and marathon relay.

Participants will run on a couple of beautiful (paved) trails in addition to running through some historic and picturesque residential neighborhoods of Springfield. Participants will also run by the historic Route 66 as they move through the downtown area of Springfield and run through the back lot of Mother's Brewing Company.

People run or walk marathons, half marathons and 5Ks for many reasons including honoring someone special in their lives, meeting personal goals, or striving for personal health and fitness.  Our participants are like family to us and we feel blessed to help them achieve their goals.  Thank you for your willingness to contribute to this incredible opportunity for people to achieve!!
