On October 25, 2009, Bangor Firefighter Randy Macdonald finished 469 out of nearly 21,000 runners in the 26.2 mile Marine Corps marathon at Washington DC. Randy finished second out of all Maine runners with a time of 3 hrs 13 min 6 sec. Finishing first for Maine and first in the marathon was John Mentzer from Kittery. Randy was participating with the IAFF Firefighters Union team and raised $1200 for the IAFF Burn Foundation. Look for Randy’s name again, running in more marathons. His great finish has made him eligible for the Boston Marathon in 2010.

Great job Randy, some say they will step up and make a difference, you made it 26.2 miles.
