The sign-up process for the Marine Corps Marathon is starting early this year.
Registration for the Oct. 30 race starts at noon today. As in years past, a total of 30,000 slots are available. Last year, when registration started in April, the race sold out within six days.
Early registration for active duty and reserve military service members ended last night.
The marathon is now in its 36th year.
