## Description

Off the success of The Blazing 5k, Blazing Race Productions looks to continue to build the race weekend. New in 2027, The Blazing Marathon will look to provide a cheap, fast, accurate, and accessible race for those at the pointy end of Midwest racing. While the race is not invite only, we will be looking to prevent too much overlap by having you submit race results that hit our event standards.
