Took me a bit to realize MM meant Messier Marathon. Since I'm just a newbie and not well versed in these things, I looked up a some info about the best order to find the Messier objects during a marathon. Here's a site that shows a pic of each one along with a common name and what constellation to find it in.

If anyone has any other resources or advice to share on getting prepared for the marathon, I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks,
