Remembrance Run 10K
October 2016 – Camp Lejeune
Rememberance Run was on the base, which was an extra level of logistics, but not to bad. Form ahead of time & IDs to get on base.

Flight of the Vampire 5K October 2019 – Brevard Transylvania County was a fun one. We were there for their Halloween weekend. Some serious costumes out for the 5K. I think many people were more intent on winning the costume contest than running. We lucked out, the start line was right in front of the…
Power For Purple 5K June 2023 – West End Nice race through a park and residential area. We really enjoyed the Sandhills region in general both for the 5k and jut playing tourist.
