Beautiful challenging course.

Not a course for a PB, but definitely one to come back to every year to enjoy the beauty and tackle the challenge.

Love love this course.

You can't beat a rolling, quiet (mostly no traffic) run through a famous battlefield.

Run through history.

Phenomenal event. Bit of a x-country run, would recommend trail shoes for some sections, but the majority of the race is a scenic rail-trail where street shoes are fine. This would be the first race I've seen cannons on the route. The historical markers make me want to come back to read them all. The volunteers were wonderful. They were enthusiastic and helpful, and plenty of them every where.

Take Two Apples and Call Me in the Morning

A growing number of doctors are telling obese patients to increase the quantity of fresh fruits and vegetables they eat. That change, says Dr. Mark Cucuzzella, a professor of family medicine at West Virginia School of Medicine, is absolutely essential. Telling people to eat less and exercise more doesnt work, because you need to eat better. Obesity is not driven by a calorie balance, but by hormonal responses to food.

Can't Limit Freedom

A little rain and a government shutdown wouldn't get in the way of the Freedom's Run marathon.
