Presenting Sponsor
We are pleased to announce that Marathon Printing is returning as the Presenting Sponsor for the 2026 US Trail Running Conference. Marathon Printing has been a fixture in the running industry for more than three decades. Founded in 1989 in Oregon, the company built its reputation on producing high-quality race bibs, signage, wristbands, and event materials for races of all sizes, from local 5Ks to major marathons. Now led by Ryan Zirk, the third generation of family ownership, Marathon Printing remains a small, hands-on operation known for personal service, fast turnaround, and a genuine passion for the sport.
“Marathon Printing, Inc. is proud to serve as the presenting sponsor of the UltraSignup U.S. Trail Running Conference in Nashville, Tennessee this October 2026.,” says Anthony Foster, Director of Operations, “We see ourselves not just as a vendor, but as a dedicated partner to endurance athletes and race directors alike.

Based out of Portland, Oregon, their team manages everything in-house, from R&D and design to production and fulfillment, which means fewer headaches for directors and better results for runners. Their gear has a well-earned reputation for being the kind athletes actually hold onto long after race day.
