Marine Corps Updates

Marine Corps 10k: The Marine Corps 10k opens for registration on May 13th. I am pretty sure this sells out in the first day. The race is the same day as the marathon, but starts at 8:00 am. It has a different starting line, but shares the same finish as the marathon. The $45 registration fee includes a goodie bag, race program, and a MCM10K shirt. Finishers will receive a medal and plenty of post-race replenishment in the hospitality area. If you are interested in running, be ready to sign up tomorrow. Course Map

Helthy Kids Fun Run: Also opening tomorrow is the Helathy Kids Fun Run, which is held in the Pentagon Parking lot. The races start at 10:30, 11:30, and 12:30. You can pick your start time. Children ages 6-13 can participate in the one-mile just-for-fun event. Registration is $5 and participants receive a t-shirt, medal and snacks at the finish line. Course Map
