Thread: Marathon finder?

Okay, so I think I AM going to start at least initial training to do some kind of marathon next year. I'd like to do a shorter distance, and will need to decide on what that distance will be before I begin training hard core. I live in the U.S., in the midwest, and want to know if there is any kind of marathon finder website where I can find something to do that's within a certain range from my home. Does anyone know of anything?

Hi there

How about Runner's World UK as a start. I use this website. It's UK but it may be a stepping stone for other events nearer your home. Also I buy the magazine from the store - which is a lot more comprehensive and has races of varying lengths all over the country in the back. Try purchasing a US equivalent of Runners World magazine (which there undoubtedly will be) from your local newsagents.

I hope that helps.

Good luck
