          Early Interest in the Marathon of the Palm Beaches
                 Indicates Increased Numbers for 2007
      Registration for the 4th Annual Marathon of the Palm Beaches
      Is now open, and attracting runners from across the country 
 
West Palm Beach, Fla., July 2, 2007 – The 4th Annual Marathon of the Palm 
Beaches (www.marathonpb.com), scheduled for December 2, 2007 in West Palm 
Beach has recently opened registration for the race to overwhelming demand.
 
"This year's event is on track to be much larger than last year's race. 
We're expecting our largest turnout yet," said Iva Grady, director of 
marketing for the Marathon of the Palm Beaches. "The Marathon of the Palm 
Beaches has become an established event for runners of all levels, and for 
runners from all over the country."
 
The Marathon of the Palm Beaches is a preferred race because the course is 
flat and fast and a qualifier for the Boston Marathon. Combine that with 
South Florida's beautiful weather in December, and the race is a true 
destination for runners ranging from novice to elite.
 
To help get runners prepared for the race, the Marathon of the Palm Beaches 
has launched its new marathon training program. The program provides a 
daily training program, supervision by coaches, and training as part of a 
team to keep people motivated. Training programs are being provided by 14 
organizations and companies in 16 locations across South Florida. For a 
list of organizing locations, visit www.marathonpb.com.
 
Last year's race drew more than 6,000 participants from 42 states and 17 
countries. Thousands of spectators lined the spectacular course, which 
features 16 miles of scenic water views. Registration is now open online at
www.marathonpb.com.
