We’re thrilled to introduce you to another one of the local makers we get to work with: Amalgamated Culture Works. Amalgamated will be printing shirts for The Parkway Mile, live from the Champlain Parkway itself!

Amalgamated Culture Works is a Vermont-based screen printing company founded in 1981 and located in the heart of the South End art district. In addition to pop-up on-site screen printing like we’ll have for The Parkway Mile, they now print shirts for clients across the country. For Amalgamated, events like The Parkway Mile allow them to connect with our community, and we couldn’t agree more!

To learn more about their work, visit www.cultureworksvt.com.

The handcycle division is one of the most inspiring parts of race weekend, showcasing incredible strength, stamina and determination.

Congratulations to this year's 2026 Handcycle Division winners!
🏆 Female Champion
🥇 Devann Murphy — 1:05:16

🏆 Male Champion
🥇 Erik Corbett — 54:55

Both champions are no strangers to the M&T Bank Vermont City Marathon podium. This marks Devann Murphy’s 6th win, including 4 wins in the last 6 years, and Erik Corbett’s 3rd win at the Vermont City Marathon.

Wheelchair Race Liaison Patrick Standen recently reflected on what it takes to compete at this level, sharing, "When you get to the level of great physical ability and stamina and fitness level, it's just awe-inspiring to watch and know what they're doing." The dedication and training these athletes bring to every race is something truly special to witness.

Thank you to all of the handcyclists who joined us for this year's Vermont City Marathon. We're proud to celebrate your accomplishments and the energy, perseverance and passion you bring to race weekend.

Kelly, from May Day Studio in Montpelier, is one of the talented makers we are working with on The Parkway Mile!

Each finisher will receive a hand-printed finisher’s certificate, thoughtfully crafted by Kelly in her studio. Since 2006, Kelly has owned and operated her print shop, bringing exceptional care, creativity, and craftsmanship to every piece she produces.

Because each of the 400+ certificates were individually hand stamped and cut, this is a unique (and nostalgic) keepsake for participants to forever memorialize their mile time and how they celebrated the completion of the Champlain Parkway, 60+ years in the making.
At the heart of Kelly’s work is a deep commitment to community, and we’re honored to collaborate with her to provide The Parkway Mile participants with these one-of-a-kind certificates. And while Kelly is tickled that we’re producing a race on the last stretch of the Champlain Parkway to be completed, we’re tickled that the printing press Kelly is using is “younger” than the Champlain Parkway’s inception.

Now you just need your mile time to add to the certificate!We can’t wait for you to take yours home!

We’re proud to launch our new series, “Meet the Athlete,” where we highlight members of the running community whose stories inspire, motivate, and connect us all.

Our first feature spotlights Patrick Standen, the Wheelchair Race Liaison for the M&T Bank Vermont City Marathon &Relay (VCM). Since 2003, Patrick has participated in every VCM, and joined the Race Committee in 2011, helping ensure that wheelchair athletes enjoy a safe, seamless, and memorable race day experience.

In our conversation with Patrick, he reflected on the event that set him on this path of competitive hand cycling more than 45 years ago. He also shared how he selects what equipment to use when he competes, and what he will be using at The Parkway Mile next week.

Join us as we learn more about a valued member of the RunVermont community.

This we're looking back at a few news-worthy moments from the Vermont City Marathon and Relay and celebrating a tradition that continues today.

Church Street has been a centerpiece of our race for generations. Long before Instagram posts and finish-line selfies, local newspapers captured the runners, crowds, and energy that turned downtown Burlington into the heart of race weekend.

From past to present, Church Street remains one of many iconic moments of race day.

The M&T Bank Vermont City Marathon and Relay is proof that 26.2 miles can bring people together in incredible ways as both participants and spectators (a real accomplishment in the rain!).

Friends, families, coworkers, classmates, and community groups all come together to share 26.2 miles, making race day a true team effort. We loved seeing so many relay teams out on the course this year, including groups from organizations like Rock Point School, Special Olympics Vermont, WCAX, Girls on the Run Vermont and so many others from across the community.

Congratulations to everyone who took part and helped make the 2026 Vermont City Marathon & Relay memorable.

If you have a story that you would like to share about your relay team, we would love to hear it! Message us or email [email protected]
