Course and race notes
Welcome to the Armed Forces Run, featuring a 5K, 10K, and 15K.
While the event name says RUN, walkers are also loved and welcomed. Our mission is to honor, respect, and thank those who support our country and communities. This includes military members (past and current), law enforcement, and first responders.
