WHAT IS MARATHON BAHAMAS?

MB is a community-based non-profit event whose goal is to provide a quality event to both the community and participants. 100% of all the proceeds stay in The Bahamas and are disbursed to our five beneficiaries: Cancer Society of The Bahamas, Sister Sister Support Group, Grand Bahama Cancer Association, Princess Margret Hospital Foundation, Bahamas Breast Cancer Initiative. To date, excluding 2015, disbursements have exceeded $350,000.

Our Weekend of Events attracts more than 900 volunteers – the vast majority who have returned year after year via organized groups. These volunteers are the backbone of our event. We are happy that many runners are registering early this year. We so cannot wait to welcome you to our Island Paradise.
