The Marine Corps Marathon Organization will once again be offering a Seeded Runner option for the Marine Corps Marathon. This year, we are also bringing the option to the Marine Corps Historic Half. (CLOSED for 2026)

As a seeded runner, you will receive access to exclusive baggage with proximity to the start line, dedicated portable toilets, special access to the front of the corral/start line and more.
