Garret Martucci of Arlington, VA left plenty of cushion in his Father’s Day win at Dash for Dad. Right from the start, he proved to be the fastest competitor in the 820 person field, completing the 4 mile course in 20:59. But it wasn’t winning the race that was most special. Martucci was running for his uncle, who has prostate cancer. Dash for Dad, a 4 mile race starting at Pentagon Row in Arlington, VA was created by the Zero Project to End Prostate Cancer.
