Run in blue

Running in blue means joining a community united in purpose, moving together to honor the service and sacrifice of our nation’s military and their families. When you register to run in blue, you’ll receive race weekend communications with details on meaningful opportunities to connect, remember, and show up alongside the wear blue community.
