Marine Corps Marathon

The Marine Corps Marathon (MCM), held in Arlington, Virginia, and Washington, D.C., is one of the largest marathons in the U.S. and globally. Known as "The People’s Marathon," it is unique for not offering prize money, making it especially popular among beginners.

The race features an iconic course managed by the U.S. Marines, providing a well-organized and spirited atmosphere. The event is part of a weekend that includes additional races like the Quantico 12K and the Turkey Trot 10K.

The MCM emphasizes community involvement through programs like Adopt-A-Mile and promotes a healthy, active lifestyle. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
