Marine Corps Marathon

Marine Corps MarathonRegistration for the 34th Annual Marine Corps Marathon opens April 1st.

Registration for the Marine Corps Marathon opens Wednesday, April 1st at 12:00 PM. The field is limited to 30,000 runners, which may lead you to believe you have plenty of time to register. But, Marine Corps is one of this area's premier running events and registration closes out very quickly.

The marathon not for you? There is also a 10K race that will start just minutes after the marathon. Runners will eventually meet up with the marathon course and cross the finish line at the Marine Corps War Memorial. There is also the Healthy Kids Fun Run for kids aged 6-13 held the day before the race. Registration for both the 10K and Kids Run opens May 13th.

The Marine Corps Marathon will be held October 25, 2009. You can register at the race website.

Happy running!
