Race weekend
Be sure to search for “event hotels” preferred by the Marine Corps Marathon as offering the best rooms at the most convenient locations and at the lowest rates. Click here for link.
Also be sure to become familiar with the DC metro map at http://www.wmata.com/maps/maps.cfm?fromMenu=MapsAndStations.1 so you can plan to use the metro as much as possible on race weekend to get to and from your home or hotel to:
-
The MCM Health and Fitness Expo, October 23-25, DC Armory (Blue or Orange Line)
-
The Team Azalea Charities Pasta Lunch at Buca di Beppo Restaurant, 1825 Connecticut Ave. NW D.C., October 25 at 1 p.m. (Red Line, just north of Dupont Circle metro).
-
The metro stops at the Pentagon (Blue and Yellow Lines), Arlington Cemetery (Blue Line), and Rosslyn (Blue and Orange Line) which are all close to the MCM start and finish line
The MCM Website also has just about everything else you need to know about the marathon and 10K, as well as the weekend events in Arlington and Rosslyn, to make your weekend extremely memorable: http://www.marinemarathon.com/page11.aspx
