A group in Pittsburgh is trying to bring back that city’s marathon –which was last run back in 2003– according to a story in the Tribune-Review newspaper. This event hosted the U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Men’s Marathon in 2000, and several USA marathon championships before going out of business from a lack of financial support from sponsors and the city itself.
