National Marathon and Endurance Events Safety and Security Forum


The NCS⁴ will host the 2024 National Marathon and Endurance Events Safety and Security Forum on December 3-4, in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

About the Forum

OBJECTIVE: To address key safety and security challenges facing marathon and endurance events and to share best practices for continuous improvement.

Road races and other participatory sports events attract large numbers of athletes and spectators, making safety and security a top priority for race organizers, public safety, and host communities. These high-profile events give rise to a host of potential risks and threats that must be addressed to ensure the safety and security of people, property, and infrastructure.

Who Will Be There

Event planners/operators, administrators and staff from marathons, half-marathons, 10K, 5K, and endurance events, law enforcement personnel, emergency managers, fire, HAZMAT/emergency medical/health services, city planners, governmental representatives, sports commissions, and invited Solution Partners

We have very limited space for this event, and registration is based on a first-come, first-served basis.

Mark your calendar and watch for details coming this fall.
