Marathon runners like to chant a mantra while training for the big day: It's not crossing the finish line that matters, but getting to the start of the race. The point being, it's better to achieve the level of fitness that comes from preparing for a marathon than it is to be able to complete the 42.195 kilometres on race day.
Yet, according to the province's new fitness bill, marathon runners won't be deemed eligible for the $500 tax credit, unless they pay membership fees somewhere, either to a gym or a running club.
