The 2010 Health and Fitness Expo by GE will be held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC, over two fitness-filled days:
Runners will need to retrieve their race materials at Packet Pick-up, part of the MCM Health and Fitness Expo, located inside the Washington Convention Center. The packet includes the participant bib number, B-tag and baggage claim sticker. 
Runners will then proceed to the Health and Fitness Expo to receive their coveted mock neck participant shirt and goodie bag containing safety pins, a commemorative MCM patch, special giveaways and offers as well as the informative race program.
The MCM will “super-size” 35 extra special goodie bags, in honor of the 35th anniversary of the event. While each runner receives a goodie bag filled with cool stuff as part of Packet Pick-up at the Health and Fitness Expo, the special Super Size Goodie Bags containing high value products from MCM sponsors and licensees will be randomly distributed throughout the two-days. Improve your chances of getting one of the bags by joining a friendly competition among the first five runners in line at the Health and Fitness Expo ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday, October 29 beginning at 8:30 a.m. at the Washington Convention Center. Recipients of the Super Size Goodie Bags should check their bag before leaving, as soon giveaways require runners claim their prizes at a specific expo booth. 
The MCM Health and Fitness Expo, supported by nearly 300 military and civilian volunteers, offers more than 200 booths and interactive centers for enjoyment by an expected 100,000 runners and guests. MCM and MCM10K participants are affluent, educated, active individuals. Each participant and race-day volunteer will receive a Goodie Bag during the Expo. Don't miss a perfect opportunity to gain exposure and awareness for products and/or services. Interested in inserting products into the goodie bags? Contact
