U.S. Army photo by Steve Sanderson, U.S. Army Africa Public AffairsFor 25 years, tens of thousands of runners and spectators come to Washington, D.C., to participate in a race classic. Two, four-member teams from U.S. Army Africa joined the road race and outperformed a majority of participating teams in the 2010 Army 10-Miler. The Active Duty Men (Commander’s Cup) team outran 90 percent of their rivals, placing 50th of the nearly 700 military and civilian teams vying for team titles. The U.S. Army Africa women’s team placed 218th, outrunning nearly 75 percent of all women’s teams. The combined time of the men’s team was 4 hours, 18 minutes and 44 seconds; the women’s team total was 5: 14:8. “Many members of our team improved their overall time from previously established records and represented the command in an outstanding manner,” said U.S. Army Africa running team coach, Osvaldo Del Hoyo. “They trained well as a team and, this morning, they proved it.”Army Africa’s fastest runner was Adolph Dubose, who finished with a time of 1:0:10 seconds, meeting a pace of ten, back-to-back, six-minute-miles. A close second was Jason Marshall, running the course in 1:3:1.“Yes, I’m happy with my run this morning,” Marshall said. “I improved my time compared to last year.”The command’s fastest woman was Rosemary Hernandez with a time of 1:17:41. On her heels, finishing a mere two seconds later, was Amanda Miller.The 10-mile road race is the third largest in the world and is the U.S. Army’s premier running event. The race course begins and ends at the Pentagon, after running through the nation’s capitol. Military and civilian runners come from around the world to take part in this annual tradition. Produced by the U.S. Army Military District of Washington, the Army Ten-Miler has become a world-renowned event drawing 30,000 runners annually.

The race starts and finishes at the Pentagon, passing by such D.C. landmarks as the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument and the Capitol.
