About the Health & Fitness Expo – CANCELLED
Expo vendors will have the opportunity to promote and sell their products and/or services to thousands of runners, health & fitness enthusiasts and spectators. The expo offers merchandise sales opportunities, sampling, running clinics, stage floor/demonstration opportunities, and more. Our professional staff will work with your organization to help you achieve your marketing goals and ensure promotional success.
The Air Force Marathon Health & Fitness Expo is free and open to the public.
Approximately 20,000 people attended the 2019 Health & Fitness Expo. Our participants represented all 50 states, the District of Columbia and 9 foreign countries. This gives expo vendors the opportunity to connect with a large and global target market of health & fitness enthusiasts.
In 2021, we estimate 15,000 participants in the Air Force Marathon. Our one-way, circular concourse traffic flow encourages visitors to walk past every vendor in order to get to bib pick-up. We have expanded the number of booth spaces on the arena floor to place even more vendors near bib or shirt pick-up.
Wright-State University Nutter Center is a state of the art facility conveniently located near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Wright State University. There are many hotels and restaurants located nearby for the convenience of our vendors and race participants.
