October 28, 2012
Arlington, VA
Let's leave this description to one of the MCM runners: "The Marines are awesome, the spectators amazing, the amount of work that obviously went into this is mind boggling. I was told this was one of the greatest things ever experienced and I absolutely agree. We all cried at different times for so many reasons. The emotion of the day was totally unexpected. The thought behind this race is what it's all about. God bless our troops!"
