Richard Murray & Co., a Mobile-based leader in end-to-end Logistics, is proud to announce its sponsorship of the upcoming Mobile Marathon Fun Run, an event that champions the importance of children’s physical fitness, while strengthening partnerships between local schools and the broader community.
Scheduled to take place on January 12th, the 1.2 mile Fun Run is one of several races that make up the Mobile Marathon. Funds raised from the fun run will benefit Azalea City Montessori School, a nonprofit (501c3) Montessori school serving the Mobile, Alabama area. The event aligns with Richard Murray & Co.’s more than 100-year-old commitment to supporting Mobile and shaping future generations.
“Richard Murray & Co., has been part of this amazing city since 1923 and we are always looking for ways to stand beside our fellow Mobilians- what better way to do that than by encouraging children to stay active and engaged!” said Lindsey Hilner, President of Richard Muray & Co. “I currently have 2 children in elementary school at Azalea City Montessori, and I have seen first-hand how prioritizing recess and active play improves the well-being of my two. Partnering with schools for this fun run allows us to contribute to a cause that inspires physical health, teamwork, and a sense of achievement in our youth.”
The full, half, and relay marathon will kick off at 7:25 a.m., with the fun run set to start at 12:30 p.m. The event will bring together students, families, educators, and community members for a day of activity, wellness, and connection. All marathon results are forwarded to the Boston Athletic Association to be included in qualifying for the Boston Marathon.
Richard Murray & Co. believes in the value of partnering with schools. Events like the Mobile Marathon Fun Run provide an opportunity to bring everyone together in support of education and children’s well-being.
We invite everyone in the community to lace up their running shoes and join us for this exciting event. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just looking for a fun day out with the family, there’s something for everyone at the 2025 Mobile Marathon Fun Run.
