Fall is almost gone and winter is just around the corner, so you know what that means… the return of the mad dash from the car to the office, back to the car and home. I can’t speak for everyone, but that’s about the extent of my running outdoors this winter.
MetroStar Systems has wrapped up its sponsorship of the Marine Corps Marathon Event this year, and while I’m sad to say goodbye to prime race season in the Washington Metro area, I am not sad to say bye to freezing cold mornings waiting at the starting line.
Here are a few snapshots from the last race MetroStar Systems sponsored, the Marine Corps Marathon Turkey Trot.

Prabin, Monica, Sara, Daniel and I before the race as Daniel prepped the muffin and apple cider table and wished the MSS runners good luck!

Hopefully Mr. Turkey got pardoned!
So say hello to a season relegated to bundling up in warm fuzzy sweaters and sitting by the fireplace. See all you runners next year and be on the lookout for more events sponsored by MetroStar Systems next spring! If we’re lucky on February 2, when Punxsutawney Phil emerges he will leave his burrow, and welcome us to warmer weather sooner than expected.
Who knows, maybe you’ll see a few of us MetroStar runners in the Marine Corps Marathon next year…
Stay warm!
