Entering A Marathon

Do I need a doctor's clearance before entering a marathon?

It is important when you run a marathon, that you see a physician I think, and let them know what you're going to do. There's quite a bit of stress on your body, and so I think every athlete should, but it's not mandated by the organizers of a race yet.

How much will running a marathon cost?

A marathon, I think is one of the most least expensive sports to be in. You need to buy a pair of running shoes, and running shorts, and a singlet to wear. Then, of course, you need to pay your entry fee. After that, it is pretty much putting the fuel in the tank en route to that race.
