MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) - It takes a certain type of motivation to get up early in the morning and run a mile while it’s still dark outside.
It takes even more to add on another 25.2 miles - enough for a complete marathon.
Yet, hundreds of runners lined up outside Pelicans Ballpark Saturday morning, ready to put it all on the line in the 2021 Myrtle Beach Marathon.
“It’s about time really,” said one runner. “Most of us runners have run the treadmill, around the neighborhood, we’re ready to get out and enjoy the race.”
