Organiser's Description
***This event is almost sold out. If you don't see enough spots open for the event you want, email the Director at [email protected] and we'll move spots around for you***
Join us on Saturday December 9th 2023 for the 6th race in our Military Birthday Series, as we run in celebration of the birthday (12/20/2019) of the United States Space Force. Races for the other branches of service are scheduled throughout 2023 in order of their birthday months (Army/Coast Guard/Air Force/Navy/Marine Corps/Space Force). This is no ordinary virtual run. It's a unique "live virtual" running event, with thousands of runners who have already experienced and love our unique race format. Among other things, there is a scheduled race date and start time (Saturday December 9th, 2023 at 8am Eastern time USA), a virtual check in and start via text or Facebook live-stream on race day morning, timekeeping (runners will provide screenshots or pictures of their chosen method of time and distance keeping), a private and active Facebook group dedicated to our "live virtual" runners, and custom engraving for the back of the medal for age group winners. All participants will receive the custom 3 inch one of a kind Space Force Birthday medal (see below), with age group winners receiving the engraving for their medal back.
