The traditional countdown to the TD Bank Beach to Beacon 10K Road Race got underway Wednesday (July 6) – exactly one month to day of the race – with the placement of the Mile Markers along the coastal course in Cape Elizabeth. Cape Elizabeth Public Works employees Jason Emery and Darren Brown installed the markers along the route. This is the 14th year for the popular race, set for Saturday, August 6. The race, which will include some of the world’s top road racers as well as recreational runners from throughout the area, begins near Crescent Beach and ends at the Portland Head light at Fort Williams Park. The event’s lead sponsor is TD Bank, America’s Most Convenient Bank, one of the 10 largest banks in the U.S. with more than 7.4 million customers at more than 1,250 convenient locations. The 2011 race beneficiary is Day One.  Photos courtesy of Photography by Ann Kaplan.
