Bellone: Join Virtual Run, Food Festival

Suffolk marathon on Sept. 13 will raise funds for veterans services

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone invites residents to join in the festivities at the Suffolk Marathon and Half Marathon to Support Our Veterans on Sept. 13.

“This race will support services for Suffolk veterans,” the County Executive said. “We offer numerous ways for people to participate, by running the full or half marathon, enjoying the wines and foods from Long Island farms and vineyards, or by running a virtual run if they can’t make it to the South Shore that day.”

Virtual Run

By registering for the Virtual Race option, you can complete either the half or full marathon anywhere and at any time—you decide what works for you. All Virtual Run registrants will receive the same race registration packet, including a finisher’s medal and commemorative Suffolk County Marathon and Half Marathon to Support Our Veterans T-shirt, as those participating in the actual event but will not be eligible in our competitive awards categories.
