The 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials Marathon is one of the most highly anticipated Marathon Trials marathons in recent memory. With an intense battle for 26.2 miles on both the men’s and women’s sides, each race will have its own drama. NBC will be televising the race live from 10 am PST to 1 PM PST on Saturday, February 13, 2016. If you are in Los Angeles, come down and watch the race as both races have their own battles and own drama.

The design, printing and production of the U.S. Olympic Trials marathon program was donated by the partners of the Running Network and Fortius Media, as we did in 2012, and as we donated media programs for USATF all the way back to 1992 with USA Cross Country programs.
We hope it adds to your enjoyment of the event. And remember to watch for updates on the Trials on your favorite runningnetwork.com site as well as live coverage, all week, from RunBlogRun.com.
