Marine Corps Marathon

I've never been to the Marine Corp Marathon.

This marathon is going to be held next Sunday in Washington D.C. and my friend Marathon Bird is going to be running in it!! She is excited/nervous and her family is excited as well. They will all be going to D.C. this week and get to spend 4 or 5 days there! Marathon Bird is excited to get to run past many of the national memorials there, including the Iwo Jima memorial, the Kennedy Center, Lincoln, Washington and Jefferson Memorials, parts of the Smithsonian, the Pentagon and Arlington Cemetary. She is looking forward to the course. Her family is trying to decide just which sites to take in, the zoo and its pandas being a top priority on the list! Maybe her husband will take photos and store them on his compact flash for us all to see when they get home!

That I'd like to see.
