Our Lovable Loser--"Teddy"--has apparently committed to running The 33rd Annual Marine Corp Marathon this Sunday on the eve of Teddy Roosevelt's 150th Birthday. Now that should be the sight!!! Will "Teddy" use a Segway, a Motorbike, or some other contraption to lap the field? Will The Strict To Form Marines Put Up With His Antics?
It's a Good Idea and the pictures of "Teddy" RUNNING The Marine Corp Marathon should be pretty good.
Here is the Complete Press Release From Our Washington Nationals
WHAT: Washington Nationals Racing President Teddy will participate in the 33rd Annual Marine Corps Marathon on Sunday, October 26 at 8:00am.
On the eve of his 150th birthday, Teddy will compete in the race known as “The People’s Marathon” with the hope of showing everyone that it is not about winning or losing, but it is about finishing the race.
