Event Description

Relevant Running is always trying to help keep you motivated and inspired. It's been said that US Marines run 165+ miles during recruit training (aka boot camp). Join us throughout January and February 2022 for the Military Miles Challenge. A virtual challenge for runners and walkers of all ages anywhere at any time. Your goal, should you choose to accept it, is to walk and/or run 165 purposeful/training miles from January 1st until February 28th 2022. But, there is more than just a single medal! Read on for details!

Military Miles Challenge runners will receive:
The custom designed Military Miles Challenge medal representing 6 major branches of the US Military (US Marines, Army, Air Force, Navy, Coast Guard, and Space Force). Scroll down for picture of this awesome custom medal. Runners who surpass 165 miles during the 2 month challenge will receive EITHER 1 dog tag (with ball chain) of their choice for each additional 15 miles beyond 165 miles OR 1 lapel pin of their choice for each additional 15 miles beyond 165 miles. Please be sure you register for your desired extra bling (dog tags OR lapel pins). During the 2 month challenge, you will receive an email from the Race Director requesting your dog tag OR lapel pin branch of service preferences (depending upon what you registered for).
