Three Walker-friendly
Courses Available
|
Did you know the Air Force Marathon offers three race courses open to walkers!
Those who wish to walk can register for the 5K, 10K or half marathon events. They will have time limits of 90 minutes (5K); 3 hours, 30 minutes (10K); and 7 hours for the half marathon.
“For so many, the very brisk pace required to do a 10K or half-marathon is a deterrent from ever trying or participating in a race,” Air Force Marathon Director Brandon Hough said. “Designing our courses in such a way that makes them walker-friendly to all paces increases who can participate, which is perfectly in line with our values of being inclusive and accessible to as many people as possible.”
