*** This is the August 2026 race*** Join us on Saturday August 1st 2026, for the 2nd race in our 2026 Military Birthday Series, as we run in celebration of the birthday (8/4/1790) of the United States Coast Guard. Races for the other branches of service will follow throughout 2026 in order of their birthdays (Army/Coast Guard/Air Force/Navy/USMC/Space Force). This is no ordinary virtual race.
