The Frederick Marathon was the flagship race of several races held in Frederick, Maryland known collectively as the Frederick Running Festival.[1]

The 7th annual marathon took place on May 2, 2010, and 706 participants finished. Carefirst (the mid-atlantic organization of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association), sponsored the event.

In the 2010 race, Morton Caster of Westminster, Maryland won the men’s race with a time of 2:44:57, while Becki Pierotti of Hazleton, Pennsylvania won the woman’s race with a time of 3:14:49.[2]

A notable result in the marathon’s history is Michael Wardian’s breaking the then world record for fastest marathon while pushing a baby stroller.[3] Wardian accomplished this in 2007 with a time of 2:42:21.[4] Wardian also owns the men’s record for the race, with a 2:26:44 finish in 2006.

Other races that take place are a half-marathon, team relay race, 5K run, and kids fun run.

It was announced in October 2010 that the marathon was discontinued.[5] The safety of marathon runners was cited as a primary factor. The Running Festival will continue, with a focus on the half marathon.[6]
