While some runners aim to run the marathon distance as fast as they can, others want to accumulate a larger number of marathons. This can be part of the [http://www.marathonmaniacs.com/ marathon maniacs] club, or to [http://www.50statesmarathonclub.com/ run a marathon in each of the US states]. To achieve these goals, it is often necessary to run marathons with only a week or so between them, and keep this up for protracted period. This is a different objective from [[Racing 2 Marathons]], where the intent is an all-out, maximum performance in each race. Instead, the frequent marathoner is looking to stay healthy and continue finishing the races. This can be particularly important if a series of races involve expensive travel. This article focuses on the situation where there are 1 to 5 weeks between races, and this will be kept up for many races.
