According to the press release, The Pike’s Peek 10K is one of the largest 10K road races in the region and was named by RunWashington Magazine in 2017 as the region’s Best 10K Race. In its 22nd year, the race is widely known as a PR (personal record)-friendly course for runners. With its gentle net downhill profile, this point to point course starts near the Shady Grove Metro station and winds its way down Montgomery County’s busiest retail corridor and finishes at Pike & Rose with convenient access to dining, retail and transit.

Regular movie theaters can have crying babies, loud teenagers, uncomfortable seats, and snack bars that charge restaurant prices for 7-11 quality products. iPic eliminates the distractions and replaces them with a comfortable recliner, a pillow and blanket combo, an adjustable table, and a call button that allows you to reach a server at any point during the movie. They take an ordinary movie experience and turn it into something you want to brag to your friends about. The Premium Plus seats also have free unlimited popcorn!
A few minutes into the movie, a server came around with complimentary popcorn. The servers seem to move around in stealth mode… I didn’t really notice them unless mine came to speak directly to me. About halfway through the movie, we ordered a seasonal dessert that consisted of two chocolate cookies with a peppermint cream filling (think whoopie pie, but much better). A great way to finish things up.

They also have sister restaurant Sugo Osteria (Italian) in Potomac and Brusco luncheonette in Baltimore.
“We selected Pike & Rose for many reasons, particularly the tenant of mix of new, diverse brands– many exclusive to this community.” said Ted Xenochristos.
