What is the GWOT 100?

Born at Camp Taji, Iraq — February 2010

The very first Taji 100 began at Camp Taji, about 20 miles north of Baghdad. Once an Iraqi Republican Guard base, it came under U.S. control in 2003. There, Captain Carole DiPardo (211th Military Police Battalion) challenged fellow service members to run or walk 100 miles during February. Nearly 300 participants stepped up, proving the challenge fulfilled a powerful need for morale, fitness, and connection.

From a base road to a stateside tradition — 2011
One of those original participants, Army medic Paul Fukuma, brought the challenge to the U.S. the following year. The format stayed simple and inclusive—100 miles in one month, open to anyone—and quickly became a February tradition.

The next chapter
While the original Taji 100 organization has retired the event, its legacy lives on. In partnership with Team Red, White &amp; Blue, the tradition continues as the GWOT 100, honoring all who served in the Global War on Terror and carrying forward a legacy of resilience, remembrance, and community.

? How it works:

Complete 100 miles in February—your way!
Run, walk, ruck, cycle, swim, row, SkiErg, elliptical, stair climber, Jacob’s Ladder, or mix it up. Every mile counts.

❄️ Winter Warriors—listen up!
