Run for Something Bigger. Become a SEEABILITY Athlete!

Make your miles matter at the Classic City Marathon! As a SEEABILITY Athlete, you'll commit to raising $5,000 for Extra Special People (ESP), a highly respected non-profit based in the Athens area that creates transformative experiences for individuals with disabilities and their families.

When you join Team SEEABILITY for the 2027 Classic City Marathon, Half Marathon, or Marathon Relay, ESP will provide:

• Your Very Own ESP-Member Coach: Get thoughtfully paired with an ESP member who will share their story, encourage you throughout your journey, and cheer you on toward the finish line!

• Discounted Race Registration: Enjoy a special registration rate for the Classic City Marathon, Half Marathon, or Marathon Relay.

• Exclusive SEEABILITY Gear: Represent the mission with special apparel to wear throughout training and on race day.

• Fundraising Support: Receive personalized fundraising guidance, social media graphics, content ideas, and regular check-ins to help you reach your $5,000 goal.

Meet Your Biggest Cheerleader!

Your ESP Member Coach isn't there to help you run faster or to plan your training. They are there to remind you why you're running in the first place.

Each SEEABILITY Athlete is paired with an individual who directly benefits from ESP's programs. We call this person your “coach” because you'll get to know them, celebrate their abilities, and see firsthand the impact of every dollar you raise.

You bring the miles.

They bring the meaning.

Together, you'll show the world what's possible when we SEE ABILITY.

Championed by former UGA Quarterback, college football analyst and color commentator, and ESP National Board Member Aaron Murray, ESP created an opportunity for athletes to compete for something bigger than themselves. SEEABILITY athletes take on something that challenges them physically — a marathon, triathlon, endurance race, or another big athletic goal — and use it to raise money and awareness for ESP. ESP can support up to 20 Classic City Marathoners, Half Marathoners, or Relay Teams as SEEABILITY runners for 2027. Relay teams are expected to raise a total of $5000 as a team.
