MIAMI, Aug. 15, 2025 ~ The 2026 Life Time Miami Marathon & Half presented by FP Movement has once again made headlines as it sold out in record time. This year, the event reached its maximum capacity of 18,500 runners two weeks earlier than the previous record sellout for last year's event. Registration for the highly anticipated marathon opened to the public just two weeks ago.

Owned and produced by Life Time (NYSE: LTH), a leading healthy lifestyle brand, registration for the January 25, 2026, event closed on August 15. However, for those who missed out on securing a spot, a waitlist is now open until September 14. Any available spots will be reallocated only if a currently registered runner drops out or defers prior to the race. Waitlist notifications will be sent out starting September 22.

In addition to the marathon and half marathon, registration for the January 24, 2026, Life Time Tropical 5K is now open. The Tropical 5K is a great way to kick off the weekend with its scenic route from Watson Island to South Beach. For those looking to train for any of these races, complimentary training programs are available through the Life Time Digital app. The app also offers a personalized training program using its AI-powered healthy way of life companion, L•AI•C.
