Oftentimes, there are also concurrent 5ks so that there’s a better chance that everyone can finish the race, no matter their fitness level. It’s a chance to prove something to themselves and the people around them. Likewise, many people who are new to races or running may just feel blessed that they completed a race, even if they walk the entire length of it. Of course, not everyone runs this race because it’s okay to walk. There are many men and women that have been overweight and then trained to run a marathon of this type in an attempt to close a chapter in their life and begin a fresh start.Īdditionally, a race like this is a great way to honor someone you have lost or who is sick or suffering, especially if the race you’re running gives to a charity that does research or gives money to a relevant cause.
For amateurs, it’s not only a great chance to get some exercise, but is also a way to give back to charity.
