marine corps marathon 2009

Results are coming for the 2009 Marine Corps Marathon 2009, you can watch the route map for the Marine Corps Marathon in 3D.

“Runners can read a course description, view the turn by turn directions of the course and check out the new 3-D Video Course Map from Harris Corp” says Marathon organizers.

The Marathon started at 8 AM Sunday. Marine Corps reps describe the course route as no different than previous years.

“The MCM will utilize the same course in consecutive years. The 2009 course showcases the best of Arlington, VA and the nation’s capital.

“The USATF certified route starts in Arlington, VA, and winds its way through Rosslyn along Lee Highway before turning on Spout Run and the George Washington Parkway. Runners will experience a climb on Lee Highway in the first few miles of the course, but are rewarded with a descent along Spout Run and the Parkway.

“After crossing Key Bridge into Georgetown, runners turn toward the Palisades Community when the course follows Canal Road, up to the reservoir and down MacArthur Boulevard. The course guides runners down popular M Street in Georgetown.”

At that point, runners begin to pass some of Washington’s best sites, from the Jefferson Memorial to the Kennedy Center.

“Runners will turn on Wisconsin Avenue and then K Street. The course passes the Kennedy Center and takes runners into Hains Point at approximately the halfway point of the race.

“Outside Potomac Park, runners pass the Jefferson Memorial before entering the National Mall and running by landmarks like the Lincoln, FDR, Korean War and Vietnam Veteran’s memorials, Washington Monument, and the U.S. Capitol. Runners continue along Jefferson Drive and turn onto 14th Street to “Beat the Bridge” at Mile 20 before returning to Virginia.”

The race eventually ends at the Marine Corps War Memorial, earning the title of Marathon of the Monuments.
