Bigger and better than ever, the Jolly Fat Man's Run is back!
Saturday,December 10th at 8:00 AM, we expect you and 700 other
runners/walkers to takethe Capital Crescent Trail from Bethesda
toward Georgetown to support the U.S Marine Corps' "Toys for
Tots" Foundation. Your donations and proceeds will benefit local
area children during the Holiday Season! This is a FUN run/walk,
not a race. Ask anyone who has run The Fat Man's. It's a blast!
We'll greet you at the starting line with hot coffee and live
entertainment from DC 101's Elliot in the Morning and The Street
Team! We sing the National Anthem and get ready for the warm-up
led by our Head Sergeant. You'll make your way toward
Georgetown, running along the C&O Canal, with our Sergeants
providing support and motivation all the way. Turn around at
Fletcher's Boathouse and return to the start line in Bethesda.
Immediately proceed to RiRa, Irish Pub & Restaurant on Elm
Street for a HOT Irish Breakfast and refreshments! Included with
your donation is a very cool long-sleeve shirt.
Listen-Up:
Are you wondering who in the hell is Flounder? And, why are we
naming our run in his honor? Because, he is "The Man, The Myth,
The Fat Ass" of DC's Rock Station, DC101. Who better to help a
fitness company raise some money for kids than a local fat boy!
Last year, we challenged Flounder to our annual Jolly Fat Man's
Run and no one remembers seeing him cross the finish line. This
year, we challenge him again, the entire Street Team and all
Morning Show listeners! Tune into DC101 and The Elliot in the
Morning Show, weekdays 5:30am-10:00am. Listen-up November 28th-
December 9th for interviews with The Sarge, a chance to win a

and more info about the run!
