Send race updates and useful runner resources.

Send official race information

Send official dates, registration links, result links, live tracking, course notes, expo details, start logistics, cutoff policies, and travel context. Specific source links are the most useful.

Discounts and local resources

Runner discounts, hotel blocks, travel resources, local guides, gear trials, recovery services, and race-week experiences can be useful when they help runners plan. We will only use them when they fit the page and are clear to readers.

Coverage and field notes

Marathon Scout is open to race-week access, comped entries, media credentials, course tours, athlete or organizer interviews, and field notes that help runners understand the race. Useful coverage is practical: course feel, logistics, travel notes, race atmosphere, and who the event may be a good fit for.

What we will not do

We do not sell positive reviews, hide weak sourcing, or turn race guides into ads. If something is sponsored, comped, discounted, or partner-supported, it should be handled clearly. That boundary keeps the site useful for runners and fair to races.

Good reasons to reach out

• A race date, registration link, result link, or live tracker changed.
• A race page needs a correction or stronger official source.
• You have a runner discount, hotel block, travel note, or local guide.
• You can provide race-week access, course context, or logistics details.
• You represent a running product, service, media project, or creator with something useful for runners.

What to include

Send the official page, registration link, timing or results link, race date, location, contact name, and the update or resource you want us to review. Specific links are more useful than broad pitches.
