Race Information:
Runners from all over the country will be in Rexburg, Idaho on the second Saturday in June to participate in the Teton Dam Marathon & Races. The races include a marathon, half-marathon, relay, 10K, 5K, and a one mile fun run. The Teton Dam Marathon & Races takes place every year around the anniversary of the breaking of the Teton Dam.
On June 5, 1976, the collapse of the Teton River Dam unleashed a savage flood which caused $500 million in damage, took eleven lives, and made thousands homeless in Wilford, Sugar City, Rexburg, Salem, Hibbard, Firth, Blackfoot, and Roberts.
This tragedy was turned into triumph by the victims’ own faith and courage and by an outpouring of aid by many volunteers from Idaho and nearby states. For this reason over a thousand runners flood the streets to take on their own personal challenge of running a race. Buses will transport marathon and relay runners from Madison High School to the Starting Line. Buses will load at 5:00 a.m. at Madison High School. (134 Madison Ave. Rexburg, ID) Buses will leave promptly at 5:30 a.m.
Mile markers will be set at every mile on each course. Police officers, paramedics, and volunteers will be stationed at key points of the race to assist the runners.
The course will shut down after 1:30 p.m. After this time, runners will need to run on sidewalks and obey all traffic laws in order to finish the race. Thank you for understanding.
Personal support vehicles, music devices and headphones, unofficial bicycles, baby strollers, in-line skates and skateboards are not allowed on the course.
