International Marathon Twitterthon

Vancouver, BC – April 5, 2012

The BMO Vancouver Marathon Participates in First Global Marathon Twitterthon

The BMO Vancouver Marathon has joined 26 other Marathons including Great Wall Of China Marathon, Jamaica’s Reggae Marathon, the Polar Circle Marathon, the Windermere Marathon and many other epic Marathons globally, in the world’s first ever Marathon Twitterthon!

The creator of the Marathon Twitterthon, Milano City Marathon, launched the first Message of Hope on March 19. The BMO Vancouver Marathon received its Message of Hope from Easter Island Marathon and we passed on our own message to Maratón Internacional de Pacasmayo in Peru.

Every day one of the 26 participating Marathons will tweet a message in their own language to the next Marathon until the final message is sent back to Milano City Marathon on April 13th concluding a trip around the world. The night before the Milano City Marathon, 26 sky lanterns will be painted with Messages of Hope and will be released across the city.

Retweet our Message of Hope with #MCM2012 to take part in this amazing global event! Click here to view all of the Messages of Hope.
