Marine Corps Marathon!

Sunday Ali ran the 26.2 mile Marine Corps Marathon.  It was an awesome race, the weather was perfect, the crowds were energetic over the entire course and most importantly Ali finished the race with a solid 10:50/mile pace!   The course was like a tour of DC - The Kennedy Center, Washington monument, Jefferson memorial, Lincoln memorial, running along the Potomac river, the National Mall, various Smithsonian museums, the Capital building, etc - if there was a monument Ali ran past it!  At one point Marine One (the president's helicopter) few over our heads.  The whole event was great!  One more race in 3 weeks and then winter hibernation can begin!
