[SkateDC] Marine Corps marathon on Sunday

[Carl Ford]

Hey skaters,

At least three people you know are running the Marine Corps
Marathon on Sunday.

Our very own Karin Brown will be running, along with Lynn Minni,
who is coming down from Philly to run.  They will be running at about
a 5:00 pace, meaning they should be finshing at about 1 pm.

I will also be running. I am aiming for a 3:50 pace, which means
that I will be finishing up at (hopefully) a few minutes before noon.   
I will be wearing the red shirt of Beer Patrol, which should be easy  
to spot.

Any other current or retired skaters running MCM this year?

The route is to be found at

If y'all come out to see us, the best way not to miss us is probably  
to catch us in Virginia.  The 14th Street Bridge will be too crowded  
for skaters to cross, but access to the route from Memorial Bridge and  
Key Bridge should be easy.

I think I can speak for all three of us when I say that we would  
appreciate some moral support on Sunday if you can come out.  Thanks  
in advance!
