The 2023 Marine Corps Marathon (MCM) will take place on Sunday,

7:55 AM EDT. The MCM Ham Volunteers team is looking for 150 amateur
radio operators to support the event by providing racecourse
situation reports.

The Marine Corps Marathon, also known as the People's Marathon,
expects to support more than 29,000 runners at this year's event.

The mission of the MCM is to showcase physical fitness and generate
community goodwill to promote the high standards and discipline of
the Marine Corps. Annually ranked as one of the largest marathons in
the US and the world, the MCM has been recognized as the "Best
Marathon in the Mid Atlantic," "Best for Families," and "Best for
Beginners."
