Eversource has announced the extension of its title sponsorship of the Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon through 2019.
This year’s Oct. 8 race will be the third year of Eversource’s sponsorship.
Neither the Hartford Marathon Foundation nor Eversource disclosed the sponsorship’s financial details.
Race organizers say last year’s event had an economic impact of $13.6 million. According to a report by Witan Intelligence, Inc., approximately 67,000 spectators, participants and volunteers visited the Hartford area for the race, spending money on lodging, shopping and dining.
