The event is open to the general public and includes a 5k and 10k run throughout the base. Runners are required to register online, at one of the three locations listed below or on the day of the race. Be sure to bring a form of government issued ID, such as a state driver’s license, U.S. passport or U.S. passport card, to gain access to the installation.
