Ghost of Seattle Marathon

THE 2012 GHOST OF SEATTLE MARATHON IS FULL. I AM STARTING A WAITING LIST BUT ALL DOUBLE, TRIPLE and QUAD RUNNERS WILL GET IN. I am limited to 300 finisher medals so please let me know how important that is if you email me.
I ordered high quality long sleeve soft tech shirts from Leslie Jordan of Portland. Their minimum quantities means I will have 100+ extra shirts for sale so please bring $20 if you are interested.
THE BEST MICRO MARATHON IN THE COUNTRY!

We always fill up so do not delay


Race is USTAF certified and a Boston Marathon qualifier. Feel free to break out your racing flats! Thanks to Terry Sentinella for making this certification happen.
This year there are excellent finisher medals, the food and aid will be great as usual. There will be 3 porta potties at the start/finish and one at the Leschi aid station. The Seattle Ghost Marathon races include 13.1 half, 26.2 full and 50K options. This is a fun run starting from tiny Mt Baker park near Seward Park in Seattle. Parking is limited so it is OK to walk from Seward Park or Ferdinand St nearby. Start is 8:00 am on Saturday November 24th 2012 and the aid shuts down at 2:00.
Early start is 6am or 7am ONLY. You must take longer than 4 hours for the marathon. If you run faster than 4 hours you will get an automatic 4:01 race time.
Overall winners will only be from those that start at the designated race time.
