In the registration field for zip code make sure you are only typing in a 5-digit number and not a 9-digit number. Another tip is to make sure you are not using the back or refresh buttons while registering. Instead go to tools and internet options and clean out Temporary files, cookies, etc and then start your registration process over. Once you submit your registration it could take up to 3 minutes for the registration to process. DO NOT hit the submit button more than once. If you did not enter your payment information then you may try to re-register but be sure to clean out your temporary files and cookies. But if already clicked “Submit” then please email Active to see if you registered at support@active.com or email the Marathon staff atmarine.marathon@usmc.mil
If you filled the Registration form with the wrong Information send an email to marine.marathon@usmc.mil requesting the change. In the race people can still expect the “Carbo Dining In” It is a informal pasta dinner which will be held at the Hyatt Regency Capital Hill in Washington DC. The event is the evening before the Marine Corps Marathon.
Here are some of the rules, Every runner must be 14 years of age or older on October 31st, 2010. Every runner must at least maintain a 14-minute per mile pace to Beat the Bridge. All runners must reach the 14th Street Bridge (Just before mile marker 20) by 1:15 pm. At that time, the street will reopen to vehicular traffic. If a runner does not reach the 14th Street Bridge on time, he or she will have the option to board a straggler’s bus which will take the runners to the finish festival. It is strongly advised to board the straggler bus but if a runner decides to continue he or she must stay on the sidewalks and they are responsible of their own safety. Eventhough this is a marathon people can still walk but you must maintain a 14-minute mile pace to “Beat the Bridge” (14th Street Bridge) by 1:15pm.
The 2010 course will be similar to 2009 but for any additional changes or updates to the race course please download the course map on our website www.marinemarathon.com in September. More News and Information about the Marine Corps Marathon 35th 2010 Registration Now Open
