"This is the time of year when runners are making decisions to participate in fall races and begin their training." said Brandon Hough, marathon director. "What a better way to encourage them to choose the Air Force Marathon by saving a little money if they register now."
This year, a virtual option is available to allow runners all over the world to join in from afar. Runners can choose between the half marathon and the marathon and will need to run their selected distance between Sept. 12-27.
Gift registrations can be purchased and donated to one of the 50 selected junior enlisted members stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. These registrations are available for the half marathon and marathon.
