Thinking about checking all six marathons off your bucket list? Here's everything you need to know to cross those finish lines.
“The Abbott World Marathon Majors started as a way to bring together the most elite athletes in the world, but it was also a way for the most renowned race directors to share best practices and learn from each other,” says Tim Hadzima, executive director at Abbott World Marathon Majors.
The Majors isn’t just about the size or popularity of a race; races need to meet a strict set of criteria to join the club. “There are 100 or so criteria a race needs to meet in order to be considered,” Hadzima says. “We’re not just talking about number of aid stations, but how long the tables are, how many cups there are, and so on. The criteria are very specific and meant to cover every aspect of the race.
