The Ogden Marathon's Winter Running Series has been established as the official training series for the Ogden Marathon. This four-part series aims to help participants prepare for the Ogden Marathon or train for other springtime running events through race-specific training plans designed by Fleet Feet.

The series includes four scheduled race events for 2027. The events are a 5K on February 13, 2027, a 10K on February 27, 2027, at the Dee Events Center, a 10 Mile race on March 13, 2027, at Roosters B Street, and a 13.1 Mile race on April 3, 2027, at Eden Park. Each event begins at 8:00 am.

Participants in the series can receive professional timing, aid stations, and finish line treats. The series offers participant shirts and finisher medals for each event. Participants who attend all four races in person are eligible to earn a fifth medal for completing the full series.

Training resources include free and paid 16-week training plans for the full and half marathon, created by Fleet Feet. Participants can also join a private Facebook Group to access live Q&A sessions with Fleet Feet coaches, in-person clinics, and meetup runs.

To reduce waste, the series reuses bibs for each race. Participants are asked to keep their bibs and bring them to each of the four events to avoid a $10 replacement fee. For standalone event registrations, packet pickup occurs at the GOAL Tent on race morning between 7:00 and 7:45 AM.

Pets are not allowed at the Winter Running Series, during pre-race packet pickup, at any start line, or anywhere on the course to ensure the safety of participants and pets.

Awards are given at each in-person event to the top three overall male, female, and non-binary finishers. Full series winners are determined by a cumulative point-based score from placement rankings in the 5K, 10K, 10 Mile, and Half Marathon in-person events.
