Big Changes for the 2009 Governor's Cup Marathon & Half Marathon


Big Changes for the 2009 Governor's Cup Marathon & Half Marathon.


The first weekend in June is still the Governor's Cup in Helena but only for the 10K, 5K and a new 1 Mile run. The Governor's Cup Marathon and half marathon are moving to September.


From their website:


Governor’s Cup Honors Tradition, Partners With Montana Marathon
In honor of the original Governor’s Cup, intended to promote health and fitness through a running race that would migrate across the state, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana (BCBSMT) has partnered with the 11-year-old Montana Marathon in Billings and will migrate the Governor’s Cup marathon, half marathon and marathon relay to a new venue in September, 2009.
This partnership will broaden and strengthen BCBSMT’s message to ”Live Smart – Live Healthy” and will be reflected in a new race name – The Montana Governor’s Cup Marathon.

The Montana Governor’s Cup Marathon, a USTAF certified course, begins in the rural community of Molt and finishes in downtown Billings. The race hosts a marathon, half-marathon, and marathon relay for both runners and walkers along with a 10K and kids’ run.
