EVENT DESCRIPTION
What's more fun than running a 1/2 marathon? A marathon of course! Let's warm up those legs for marathon and 1/2 marathon season with this pre-season event.
Run it as a race to see who's the fastest or find your pace group and motivate each other in a fun run. There will be four groups: Group A & B will cover the marathon distance, group C the 1/2 marathon distance, and group D a 10k.
*Please note: Group B is a Run/Walk marathon. The leader will run for 1 mile @ 5.3mph/8.5kph and walk 1 mile @ 3.3mph/5.3kph. It is expected that you stay with the leader. This marathon will take slightly longer than 6 hours. DO NOT ENTER THIS CATEGORY UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO FOLLOW THE LEADER.
Racers: please join groups A, C, or D.
Social runners: join groups A, C, or D depending on your desired distance and put your estimated finish time in hours and minutes at the end of your last name. For example: Downey (3:59). This makes it easier to form pace groups based on finishing times.
