Congratulations on your race finishes, however your work is not quit finished. In order to maintain the integrity of the club, in April of 2018 we have implemented a review board of fellow Maniac volunteers that review each and every one of your races to ensure it meets the criteria. You may be asking why we implemented this? Unfortunately we’ve had many members that were taking advantage of the “honor system” process we had in place for many years. In order for the new review process to work correctly, we need to set a few guidelines Please visit the following web page to see the details of the new process: http://www.marathonmaniacs.com/how-to-upgrade-your-level/ http://www.marathonmaniacs.com 3 Lynne and Bart Gysel We now have chapters throughout the U.S. that are run by our Regional Ambassadors to help connect local runners together.

The Main Maniacs decided to create an asylum dedicated to those who are Double Agents. In order to be assigned a Double Agent number you must have your dues paid and updated in both the MM and HF. Your name and e-mail address must match both clubs. Each day a program will run to generate new members. New gear is available for Double Agents as well as a whole new set of challenges as you climb peaks. For more information visit the Maniacs web site.
