Megan Lucas, a participant of the 50th annual Marine Corps Marathon, poses for a photo after crossing
the finish line in Arlington, Virginia Oct. 26, 2025. This was the first marathon Lucas has run since her
open-heart surgery in May of 2024, making this her 18th Marathon ran, 3rd Marine Corps Marathon
completed, and new best run time by four minutes. The 2025 “People’s Marathon” featured the
hallmark esprit de corps, perseverance, and community spirit the race is known for. Tens of thousands
of runners converged on D.C., Maryland, and Virginia to not only show support for the Marine Corps and
their country, but also for the unique experience of running this iconic course alongside Marines. (U.S.
