The Wirefly National Marathon

The New Wirefly National Marathon course has been unveiled for the 2nd year of this annual event. Take a look at the Wirefly National Marathon map and notice that it still starts and finishes at RFK stadium, but there are a few tweaks to the course. The Wirefly National Marathon will be USATF certified as a Boston qualifier now this is a big deal.

The marathon is scheduled for Saturday, March 24, 2007 with a 7 A.M. start and registration is now open online. All team pricing is available there for both the half marathon and the full marathon. Registration is simple and easily done online, but make sure you get in before March 18th! Registration closes promptly on that day. Time is running out as this is just under 3 weeks away.
