Bager Runs With the Marines

Squirrels roller captain Edmund Bager II ran in the 30th annual Marine Corps Marathon on Oct. 30, finishing 8013th overall with a time of 4:34:56. When asked how running a marathon compares to hockey, Bager replied, “Dude, it’s apples and oranges, hockey’s much more fun and can be played anytime, while the marathon is something you have to train for to accomplish.” Bager, 35, missed two ice games while preparing for the race. “I’m glad I did it, but I’m glad it’s over, now I can focus on hockey for the remainder of the year,” he said.
