For those of you that have qualified will they take a time from any marathon or is only certain ones.

I know the Jacksonville Course is certified since they even advertise it, but it looks like I am going to miss the Jax Marathon this year so now i have to scramble to find a new one, wait for next year at Jacksonville or try a really HARD triple that I see in January.

I believe that most official marathons you can use to qualify. Of the four official venues I have been to, all four could be used to qualify (Chicago, Indy, RnR Phoenix, and Boston).

Write the RD. I think they take any marathon that is certified to distance though.

We have some really great marathons here in November and December if you don't mind the drive. Palm Beach (November) has its first and Miami (January) is in its third year. I have done Miami the whole the first year and the half last year. Both times I had a great time. I think I'm gonna do the whole again this year.

Good luck in whatever you decide.

Thanks Everybody!

I was to lazy to go find the link to the Boston Marathon I figured someone here would know the answer. Now I have to decide where and when I can try and pull it off.
