The 'People's Marathon' in Pictures
Tuesday, October 28, 2008 | James Robertson
The 33rd Annual Marine Corps Marathon was run on Sunday, attracting more than 18,000 runners from all over the United States and the world.
The top male finisher was Andrew Dumm, 23, of Arlington, Va., with a time of 2:22:44.
The top female finisher was Cate Fenster, 37, of Wooster, Ohio, with a time of 2:48:55.
The run is also known as the "People's Marathon," because there is no cash prize, and the "Marathon of the Monuments," for the course it takes over the D.C. Metro area.
