This was my first time running the Capitol Hill Classic and it was a blast. The race starts in Capitol Hill and has a very fun neighborhood feel to it - it's put on by a local school and all race proceeds go to the school. The course is relatively flat

The course was awesome, yet challenging with all the bridges and the small rolling hills on the roads. The crowds were cheering at every section of the course with the bridges being the only exception.

Great race. Thought it was put together nicely. The parking and shuttle was very convenient compared to other races. I enjoyed the crowd support was great. I heard a ton of great things about this race so I was pleased to have my first marathon be with the Marines. Will definitely
