Pittsburgh Marathon

The Dick's Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon, commonly referred to as the Pittsburgh Marathon, is an annual marathon footrace held on the first Sunday in May in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the United States. The Marathon was first announced on October 3, 1984 with U.S. Steel and PNC Bank as sponsors.〔https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=JTkgAAAAIBAJ&sjid=_WEEAAAAIBAJ&pg=3050%2C386117〕〔https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=3BEdAAAAIBAJ&sjid=IJYEAAAAIBAJ&pg=5413%2C965041〕 From 1985 to 2003, the race was held annually and named the UPMC/City of Pittsburgh Marathon, although serious financial difficulty within the City of Pittsburgh municipal budget and UPMC's withdraw from title sponsor led to suspension of the race from 2004 to 2008. In 2009, the event was revived with a new title sponsor, Dick's Sporting Goods, and renewed interest in the race.
The 1988 and 2000 races were USA Olympic Trials for women and men, that were held separately from the regular event although both were held over the same course.〔https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=sOQhAAAAIBAJ&sjid=a2MEAAAAIBAJ&pg=5542%2C8836328〕
== Events ==

Aside from the main marathon event, several races occur during the weekend of the marathon, including a half marathon, two to five person marathon relay, 5k race, and "kids marathon." All races except for the "kids marathon" and 5k utilize the same route and starting time as the marathon. Attendance and popularity of the events has risen greatly since the 2009 revival. The 2012 race had the largest field in the history of the race. Registration for 2012 closed with roughly 25,000 participants between all races, with 6,000 entrants in the full marathon, 13,000 entrants in the half marathon, and 800 teams in the marathon relay, with the remaining entrants distributed in the 5K. Additionally, an estimated 60,000 spectators lined the course, and 4,000 volunteers provided assistance.〔("The marathon showcases a city of many champions" ). Letter from Meyer "Skip" Grinberg to the ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette''.〕 2012 also marked the earliest sellout in the race's history with all events except the 5k selling out on or before March 6, 2012.〔
