MIAMI, September 16, 2023 - Overwhelming demand for the 
Internationally-renowned Life Time Miami Marathon & Half has resulted in 
the fastest sellout in race history.

Set for January 28, 2024, event registration closed with 18,000 runners 
five weeks earlier than the previous year.

A waitlist will be activated from October 10-31 for those still hoping to 
compete. Spots will be made available only if current registered runners 
drop out prior to the race. Waitlist registration is available at 
www.themiamimarathon.com and notifications will begin November 7.

"We are overwhelmed by the excitement that runners around the world have to 
Run Miami," said Frankie Ruiz, co-founder of the Miami Marathon and Chief 
Running Officer at Life Time. "We look forward to making each participants' 
day a Miami Famous experience as they run our scenic streets at the party 
of the year."

Participants represent all 50 states and nearly 70 countries and will take 
on the USTAF-certified, Boston-qualifying, flat course that showcases the 
best views of Miami's cityscape and waterways. As one of the most 
internationally friendly events in the industry, Life Time personalizes the 
race bib of each runner with their home country's flag.
