22,000 people will line up for the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, DC on Sunday, most of them first-timers. A pulp writer would say, 22,000 stories. Tony Rider is one of those stories, a marine vet who feels fortunate he is still whole after deployments in Iraq. He is running to support the Wounded Warriors Project.
