I'll save you the minute:
They do it for the feeling of accomplishment and when they are not running a marathon, they usually run as a form of exercise anyway. The end.

I ran regularly, it was just a natural progression had more fun training for it than completing the marathon, ticked it off the list, then went back to my normal running routine, preferred the half marathons did lots of them.

Birds of a feather flock together. Gives you that herd mentality feeling in those large numbers.
