My sons are going to have yet another weekend of long car rides, early wake up and greasy food. This Sunday I am running the Army Ten Miler. The race is in Washington DC for most of its distance, but it begins and ends near the Pentagon. Start time is 0800, so we wil be waking at 0600 to get to the start through a very big crowd.
We will leave after lunch tomorrow and drive to DC for packet pickup. We have free accommodations with Grandpa in Silver Spring MD. So hamburgers for dinner tomorrow and for lunch Sunday!!!
I will start with Wave 2 of three waves. It looks like I will be running with 25,000 of my closest friends.
Should be fun!!
