Our largest running event on base! Whether you run for a cause, to beat a personal best, or the challenge of pushing yourself across the finish line, then we hope you are prepared for a grueling 13.1 mile third annual Beale Half Marathon on April 24, 2015. Half Marathons, also known as a 21K, have been gaining popularity in recent years. One of the main reasons for this is that it is a challenging distance, but does not require the same level of training that a marathon requires. We have seen over 250 participants for the Half Marathon. Gold Sponsorship: $1,000 Booth/table onsite Your business name mentioned in AAFES radio.
