Can’t quite tell what it is, but it’s definitely a male.

It’s real.

As to the status of the event:

“MCM and the Government Shutdown
Since the government shutdown occurred, the Marine Corps Marathon continues its coordination with hopes of a conclusion in time to host the event without impact. Without a resolution to the government shutdown this week, the MCM as planned is in jeopardy of being cancelled.

“While still considering and exploring all possible options, the MCM has targeted this Saturday, October 19 as the date to officially notify runners of the status of the event. It is sincerely the hope of everyone associated with the organization that MCM participants can run as planned.”

Yup, a male. I see a headless three legged dog lifting his leg to relieve himself.

It looks like they altered the path eight days into planning.
