Press Release - Denver Marathon - 10/10/07

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
                                     

         Denver Marathon Waives Marathon Race Entry to Welcome 
                  Chicago Runners Looking to Finish 

WHAT: 	The Denver Marathon, scheduled for October 14, 2007, 
announced today that it will waive marathon entry fees to runners who were 
registered for the Chicago Marathon but were unable to finish.

HOW: 	Persons registered for the Chicago Marathon can register 
online for the Denver Marathon at www.DenverMarathon.com and enter the 
online referral code ChicagoRunner or they may register in 
person on Friday or Saturday, October 12 or 13, at the Denver Marathon EXPO 
located at the Adams Mark Hotel, 1550 Court Place.

Chicago runners registering for the Denver Marathon will need to present 
proof of registration for the Chicago Marathon and a photo ID at packet 
pick-up. For more information about the race or packet pick-up, please go 
to www.DenverMarathon.com.

WHY: 	"As a former professional athlete, I know what it takes to 
train for a big race and the disappointment of not being able to finish due 
to circumstances outside of my control," said Denver Marathon Executive 
Director Anton Villatoro. "In response to many local Colorado runners who 
were hoping to complete the Chicago Marathon last weekend but could not 
finish, our race wants to give these runners another chance to reach the 
finish line."

The Denver Marathon race course is flat and has little to no elevation 
change and will be certified by USA Track & Field as a qualifier for the 
Boston Marathon.
