7 Reasons to Take Part in the Local Marathon
5. To experience a great bonding session
Families and friends could bond in the freshness of the early morning. Instead of the usual parties, functions or sit down dinners and lunches, try doing something else as a group for a change and you will surely await the next marathon.
6. To enjoy a nice date
Believe it or not, but marathons make for great dates. You dress up in trendy exercise gear, burn the calories and increase fitness levels together. After the great start to the morning, you could head home or to a local restaurant to tuck into a sumptuous and well deserved breakfast. Post breakfast you have the whole day free to either chill around and relax at home or paint the town red.
7. To help a cause
Lastly, most marathons support some or the other cause that need financial help. By adding to the number of people who take part in it and hopefully, achieving the third, second or first position in the race, you would be helping lesser privileged sections of the society. Nothing better than helping a cause, simply by making yourself fitter, without a coin or note going from your bank account.
