The Yorktown Yahoos were recently selected to be one of the musical groups to perform along the course at the 2012 Marine Corps Marathon. They played for 50,000 runners and spectators. The majority of their audience was transient... The People's Marathon, as it is called, starts and ends in Arlington. The boys roused themselves up early and were stationed at their post at mile 4 under the bridge at spout run at 7:30 am. They were surprised to see the first runners sprint past before 8:15 less than 15 minutes after the start of the race. The runners seemed to enjoy being sent on their way with a little tune and of course the Yahoos had fun as always.
