Corps Marathon takes a swerve

Organizers of the Marine Corps Marathon have announced that they will be switching up the course of the race some more this year, according to a Wednesday Washington Business Journal article.

Among the biggest changes: Runners will go by Hains Point about five miles earlier than in recent years. For those readers who are more visual: Hains Point is the site where J. Seward Johnson, Jr. plopped his “holy-crap-what-is-that-coming-out-of-the-ground” piece, The Awakening in 1980. (It was moved to PG County in early 2008.)
