2018 The Woodlands Marathon

March 3, 2018

On behalf of nearly 115,000 residents and approximately 2,000 businesses in The Woodlands, Texas, I want to extend a warm welcome to all of you here for The Woodlands Marathon.

The Woodlands has long been known as a very active community, from prestigious running and biking events to all kinds of quality organized sports. People enjoy The Woodlands for over 200 miles of pathways, 143 parks and millions of square feet of shopping, dining, hospitality and entertainment. We sincerely hope you will enjoy our world-class community while you are here. Just some of the great opportunities to explore include catching a trolley for a ride around the Town Center, kayaking down The Woodlands WaterwayÂŽ into Lake Woodlands and enjoying the new Mobike bicycle share program that makes it fun and easy to enjoy all that our wonderful community has to offer.

We wish you a safe and rewarding experience during your event in our world-renown town. To the athletes, your hard work and commitment in preparation is remarkable. To all the family, friends and fans, we welcome you to enjoy the event as well as the beautiful environment of The Woodlands!

Sincerely,

Gordy Bunch Chairman of the Board The Woodlands Township

Welcome to The Woodlands!

As Chairman of Visit The Woodlands Board of Directors, it is my great honor to greet the visiting guests to the area as well as the residents who get to experience world-class events like The Woodlands Marathon in their own hometown.

The Woodlands is an escape from the everyday and it’s my hope that you experience a bit of that this weekend. The Woodlands has 14 high-quality hotels, over 200 award-winning restaurants, one of the top amphitheaters in the world, events like the fifth largest art festival in the world and over 11 million square feet of shopping, entertainment and more.

Make sure you take time this weekend to explore beyond your hotel room and experience the luxury and ease of our town. From leisurely Waterway Cruiser rides along The Waterway to fast-paced hikes through The George Mitchell Nature Preserve, there’s something for everyone amidst the trees.

Whether you’re an athlete preparing for a great race or a spectator cheering at the finish line, we hope your weekend in The Woodlands is one to remember. More than anything, we hope you leave The Woodlands already planning your return trip to experience all our community has to offer.

Best, Bruce Rieser Visit the Woodlands Chairman

Welcome to the 2018 Fidelity Investments The Woodlands Marathon!

On behalf of The Woodlands Marathon Management and the 2018 Race Committee, I would like to wish you a safe and enjoyable race. We are pleased to host the 7th Annual 2018 Fidelity Investments The Woodlands Marathon, Houston Methodist The Woodlands Half Marathon, Fleet Feet Sports The Woodlands 5k, Pathfinder Pediatrics Homecare 2k Fun Run and The Woodlands Marathon Relay.

Over the last six months the Houston region and The Woodlands has been recovery from the effects with the natural disaster, Hurricane Harvey. In the wake of it’s devastation The Woodlands Marathon Management started The Woodlands Marathon Relief Fund. Along with multiple of charities and donations to volunteer organizations, The Woodlands Marathon event will eclipse the $1,000,000 mark in funds raised and donated.

We cannot have done this without your support.

Our courses are some of the fastest in the country and 2nd fastest in Texas in terms of average finishing times. We are eager for the runners to experience our fast, single loop full marathon course, which has earned the distinction of being one of the Top 25 courses in the United States and Canada to qualify runners for the Boston Marathon.

Finishing along the waterway is one of the most beautiful finishes in the south. We take great pride in offering a world-class venue that allows runners from across the globe the opportunity to run their personal best.

The event kicks off the Saturday prior with the Pathfinder Pediatric 2k Fun Run and the following Friday with the Houston Methodist Health and Fitness Expo. We finish on Saturday, March 3rd, with the running of the marathon, half marathon, relay and 5k events.

Please help us by thanking all of our sponsors by using and promoting their products and services whenever possible. A tremendous thanks to our local businesses, residents within The Woodlands, the Commissioner of Precinct Three of Montgomery County, The Woodlands Township, The Woodlands Convention & Visitors, The Woodlands Development Company, our sponsors, the race committee, and of course our outstanding volunteers.

Thank you to each and every one of you for making this a World Class Event!!!

6 Tips For Your First Race

IF YOU’RE GETTING READY FOR YOUR FIRST RACE, HERE ARE SOME Make sure nothing you wear is new.

Everything on your body, from socks to a headband should be road-tested.

Line up with runners of similar ability (corral assignments).

If you run a nine-minute mile find the part of the pack that runs your pace, and that won’t be at the front. Being swept into a pace that is too fast will be a bad experience and, of course, isn’t fair to the faster runners who will have to navigate around you.

Always begin slowly.

The easiest mistake for a beginning racer to make is to respond to the exuberance of the race and head out too fast. Doing so

50

2018 The Woodlands Marathon

begs for an injury or at best a rotten finish because you spent your energy too early in the course.

Use the water stations.

Keep yourself hydrated. Sports drinks can help keep your energy up.

Don’t be disheartened when other runners pass you during the race.

There will always be runners in front of you--and behind you.

Know when the cutoff time is for your race so that you can pace yourself accordingly.

It is depressing to finish without a finish line and an official time.

For a 10K, the cutoff is usually 1:30; for 15K, from 1:40 to 2:00; for some marathons, as much as 6:00.
