Holy crap! First woman in her first marathon ever.. her time was 2:51: 40 something.. she graduated West Point and ran xc there.. and is in the marines.. but holy crap.. that's impressive...
I don't follow it really but I wonder if it's common for an active marine to win? Probably..
They don't offer prize money, so it's not uncommon for a "regular person" to win MCM.
Kudos to her!

That's pretty cool.
The winner of the 2014 Marine Corps Marathon is not a marine (and despite Uncle Fred's insistence, you were right not to capitalize the word "marine."). She's captain in the U.S. Army and a graduate of Chelmsford High School in Massachusetts. Maybe your daughter was thinking of someone else.
I ran the MCM in '08. No elite runners in the field and it was a congested, slow race.
MOS, are you sure she is in the marines? Why would a West Point grad be in the marines?

Nope that's the girl. My daughter went to Chelmsford high school though 9th grade.. Guess I confused marine with army I sort of thought thy were one and the same.. My bad
