Oh heck, let’s just call it what it is …
Here’s the Sun page on the Baltimore Running Festival:

In previous posts, I’ve been a bit hokey in my complaints about the rebranding from a “marathon” to a “running festival”, but I have to admit that it’s probably the right move. It really is a whole set of events at this point, and the name makes things less intimidating for first-time runners. Good luck to everyone who takes part.
A next step that I encourage: Emulating Ireland a year or two from now with a Baltimore Walking Festival in the spring.
