I'm going. Anyone else?

If you've run it in the past, tips are appreciated. I've run a marathon before, but not this one.

    I ran it in 04'. It is a great race. Very cool w/ all the Marines there. I stayed in Crystal City, a bit less expensive, but quick on the subway.

    I was thinking about doing it again this year too.

    Not doing it but its my FAVE to date and I have done most tof the "big" ones by now. We stayed at the Residence Inn Pentagon City. GREAT place to stay., Not expensive at all. Small "hill" coming at the end but most of its flat and beauiful and great crowd support. Plus it has gotten great weather yr after yr.
