Battle of the Branches 5K (Syracuse)

Get ready to lace up your running shoes for the inaugural Battle of the Branches 5K in Syracuse, Onondaga, taking place on Saturday, November 9, 2024! This exciting event promises to be a memorable experience as participants choose to represent one of the six military branches: Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard, or Space Force. Each team will sport their own unique headband, fostering a spirited competition and camaraderie among runners.

The Battle of the Branches 5K will take place just ahead of the CNY Veterans Parade and Expo at the NY State Fairgrounds, making it an excellent way to honor our veterans while enjoying a fun and active day.
