Battle of the Branches 5K

This Veteran’s Day, join a run that’s more than just a race. It’s a tribute! The Battle of the Branches 5K brings together veterans, active duty service members, and civilians in a shared stride of gratitude and unity. Participants will run not only for fitness, but to honor the sacrifices of those who have worn the uniform. It’s a celebration of service, resilience, and the power of community.

While the mission is meaningful, the spirit is fun, too! Each runner will represent a military branch, and the top finishers will earn bragging rights for their branch. Whether you’re in it to win or just in it for the vibes, come ready to sweat, smile, and salute. May the best branch win!

All are welcome! Every age, runner or walker, speedy or strolling, there's a place for all paces. Bring your friends, your families, your flags, and your sneakers. No matter your pace or place, your presence makes this event stronger. Let’s honor our veterans together, one stride at a time.
