For all 3 categories on this page, it's all pretty simple. If in
100 Marathon Club rules an event counts as Marathon or Ultra, then that event
can count for the State, Province or Continent as appropriate. In
the United States there are two main clubs interested in the completion of the 3
categories.
The oldest club is the
50 States & DC
Marathon Group . To complete with them, not only do you
need the 50 States of the Union, but also the District of Columbia, where the
Capital Washington can be found.
The newer club is the 50 States
Marathon Club
which was formed in 2001 with 4 current UK members amongst it's founder
members. It's the same 50 States you need to complete, but they also the record
Canadian and Continent finishers.
A 3rd club Marathon
Maniacs does not give finisher awards, but has a point
system that elevates you to the heights with any achievements, eg. #'s in year,
consecutive etc. While we are giving a certificate for the
Counties, these along with Countries; States, Provinces & Continents are
about setting yourself goals & targets, as well as just knocking off another
marathon number. Set a target, and go for it, good luck! Regards
