What? is Going on Now!
The Second Annual Vancouver USA Marathon will take place Sunday, June 17, 2012; and that means What? events are already up and running!
What? That’s right, What? events are the Vancouver USA Marathon “pre-functions” that take place monthly (usually on a Wednesday evening) where you can get together and meet others who are training to run, or walk, the Vancouver USA Marathon. These run/walks are free and are a great opportunity to run a portion of the course, get some free stuff, a free beer, discounts on Pasta and/or Happy Hour, and hang out with other cool people who are also training.
The running routes and restaurant change each month, but will begin at 6 pm, prizes at 7 pm and wrap up by 8:30. Sign ups begin around 5:30 and the first 10 people receive a free Vancouver USA Marathon Training shirt! Speaking of free…during the month of October, when you register for either the Vancouver USA Marathon or Half Marathon, you will receive a free entry for the Fort Vancouver Run in March 2012.

October 19, 2011: Main Event (800 Main Street)
