It was time for another Run of Infamy (formerly named the Run of Shame). It was 8 miles and 6 stops of infamous history! Thanks so much to John Smilde for being the coordinator for this run as well as our presenters- Ed, Katie B, Jordan, Sidney, Sergey and Anna. Huge applause to our marshalls- Robert, Frithjov and John S for keeping everyone together.
We learned a lot of infamous bits and bobs, from a duel at Lafayette Square that turned deadly and spooky, to the boarding house turned karaoke bar where Abe Lincoln almost got abducted, and off to the Capitol where we learned some Jan 6th facts, then to the tidal basin where a stripper reportedly jumped in, the big traffic jam that made the Memorial Bridge finally happen and finishing our two parter- Deep Throat facts in Rosslyn that followed the previous year when we learned about the Watergate Scandal! Fascinating and Fun Stuff!
Can’t wait to do it again next year!
