Runners in the area anticipate the Mercedes Marathon as this annual event attracts participants from across the nation as well as across the world.

The skill level of the runners matters less than the proceeds raised that yield hundreds of thousands of dollars that go to benefit the Children's Hospital, the Bell Center, and Kid One Transport.
