The Marine Corps Marathon Organization will once again be offering a Seeded Runner option for the Marine Corps Marathon. This year, we are also bringing the option to the Marine Corps Historic Half.
As a seeded runner, you will receive access to exclusive baggage with proximity to the start line, dedicated portable toilets, special access to the front of the corral/start line and more. To qualify, participants should submit a proof of time from within the last three years at time of registration or through their haku account.
Please note- the Seeded Runner option has now closed for 2024.
