Denver's event had its inaugural go last year. This year's edition will be held this coming Sunday.
From AP:
"This is in response to the Colorado running community that has contacted us because they were scheduled to complete their marathon in Chicago this fall, and so we wanted really to take care of those athletes," (Race Director Anton) Villatoro said.
Anyone 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 can register in person on Friday or Saturday at the Denver Marathon EXPO at the Adams Mark Hotel in downtown Denver.
Hey, who says there's only bad news in the media. And this is a great gesture by the Denver Marathon folks. The entry fee for the Denver Marathon is $105.
