Press Release - Little Rock Marathon - 11/10/23

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

          Registration opens for 22nd Little Rock Marathon Expo

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (November 10, 2023) - Registration is now open for the 
2024 Little Rock Marathon Health and Fitness Expo, presented by the Hatcher 
Agency. The two day event features vendors and exhibitors showcasing 
products and services geared toward runners, walkers and health-minded 
consumers.

The Expo will take place March 1 - March 2 in Little Rock's Statehouse 
Convention Center and is free to the public. Late registration for races 
will also be available, depending on availability. 

According to Executive Director Geneva Lamm, the Expo is a key component of 
the marathon weekend's activities. The event serves as a headquarters for 
athletes, volunteers and spectators. "We're excited to open registration 
for the 2024 Health and Fitness Expo," Lamm said. "Since the Expo is open 
to the public, vendors are able to capture a wider audience and promote 
their brands beyond than just our Athletes," she said.

Exhibitors already registered for the event include Flyway Brewing, Loreal 
USA, Rock City Running, Baptist Health Weight & Nutrition Center, and 
Arkansas Blue Cross/Blue Shield.

Marathon organizers are seeing higher early registration numbers for the 
race, which Lamm said she hopes will translate to a larger showing at the 
Expo as well. The Expo features exhibitors showcasing a wide array of 
products and services geared toward runners, walkers and health-minded 
consumers, as well as the latest advancements in distance running and 
walking, fitness and nutrition.
