Event Description
The Boot Camp Challenge is on Saturday October 22, 2022 at Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) San Diego! It is open to the public and is a 3-mile race using the fabled Marine Corps Recruit Training Area and many of the same obstacles (tunnel crawls, log hurdles, 6 foot climbing wall, cargo net crawls) used by the young men and women in their quest to become a U.S. Marine.
Featuring over 60 Marine Corps Drill Instructors encouraging and motivating runners along the course. This is an invitation from MCRD San Diego to the community to experience a truly unique opportunity to be a Marine for the day, using a fun race format. The course is designed for all fitness levels, no penalty for missed or incomplete obstacles. Great corporate team builder opportunity!
