Equity in Motion
Equity in Motion offers a 50% discount off the cost of Marathon Weekend registration to individuals who are part of an underrepresented community or culture.
Our vision at Twin Cities In Motion is to level the start line. We believe that ethnic, social, or economic status shouldn’t be barriers to a movement journey.
Equity in Motion exists to welcome and support those who have historically faced systemic disadvantages.
By discounting the cost of Marathon Weekend registration, our hope is to promote social justice, equity, and inclusivity within our running community.
If you identify as Black, Indigenous, Person Of Color (BIPOC), an athlete with a disability, transgender, a non-binary runner or are from another historically underrepresented community, consider applying to Equity in Motion.*
Equity in Motion offers 300 discounted entries to any of our Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend events (excluding the Half Marathon for More charity event or Loony distances). Equity in Motion offers a 50% discount off the cost of registration to individuals who are part of an underrepresented community or culture.
*If you identify in one of these groups but can afford to pay the full registration price, please consider others who may be experiencing financial hardship.
