Participants who register for the Marathon after the 1/2 Marathon has sold out and only complete the 1/2 Marathon distance will receive a marathon medal & 1/2 Marathon time.
So essentially if you want in the half after it is sold out (and it sells out much faster) you can register for the full and just run the half anyway.[/quote]
So you can now do half the work (1/2 marathon) and be acknowledged with double the work (marathon medal)?
The virtue-signaling, IG-posting, hobby-jogger crowd are gonna love this.
Something tells me the posted results will show a bunch of out-of-shape cross-fit bros finishing 2.5 hour halfs but receiving 2:30 marathon times. Their mindless IG followers will love it.
The threat on the race's website should be that results will not be recorded for marathon entries that only complete the half. They'll be vanquished from the results.
