Sup party people, I’m Colton and this is my story…

Set the scene: this fall I trained for Philly marathon, telling uninterested people that I, too, was doing a marathon.

Tragedy Strikes: 400 feet into my taper run a week before the marathon, I twisted my ankle and screamed “FUCK” outside of Pottery Barn.

Lessons Learned: it was a big bummer missing Philly, but I grieved, road tripping to the city of brotherly love, cheering on my friends, and healing my inner runner by getting really drunk and eating disgusting food.

Call to Adventure: With the encouragement of my running community in DC (Grace), I realized my dream is not deferred, and I can run a marathon in rock creek.

The time has come: this Sat morning, I will be running from the tip of the red line, Shady Grove (fuck you, Glenmont), to the monuments via the Maryland/DC Rock Creek Trail. 

Please feel free to cheer me along the way or meet me at the end: the volleyball courts with the hot people near the Lincoln memorial. I’m aiming to leave Shady at 9 and get to end around 12:30.

If you can’t join, I’ll probably go split the G at the Commodore after (wheelchair accessible). 

See you all on Sat!

Much wuv,
Colton
