THIS IS SOMETHING I HAVE TO DO!
Almost everyone knows someone who is a marathon finisher or someone that knows someone who is a marathon finisher. For some reason the idea for you to become that person is far fetched. We are here to tell you that it is possible. Approximately 33% of our 2008 ING Miami Marathon® finishers were "First Timers". Our race is considered to be extremely "First Timer" friendly.
We cater to all types of persons, competitive or not. We believe that marathoning has become a sport or activity for all. It is one of the world's most democratic sports, anyone can do it. Nothing special needed, all you need is training, running shoes, and that's about it. |
