    Registration for it is closed. But, what if I just show up and try
    running it. I won't get the T shirt and official time from the chip,
    but, would they let me run it?

    That's called being a "bandit". It's generally frowned upon, because you're
    (a) taking up space and air that people who entered legitimately could use,
    (b) potentially taking up resources (drinks, and medical if anything happens--
    which I wouldn't rule out given your lack of training and poor nutrition)

    What's the hurry ? There are other open fall marathons that you can still
    enter, but you're not going to be ready for a fall race anyway.

    Cheers,
