Join Me for the 2020 Air Force Marathon Fly! Fight! Win! Challenge in September

I'm as disappointed as every other runner who's watched their race calendar fall apart due to COVID-19, but today I found a bright spot. 

In the past, the only way I could participate in the #AFMarathon was to show up in Dayton, Ohio in September. That's hard when you live far, far away (Florida resident here).

Last month, the Air Force Marathon converted into a virtual race. That was great news for me.

It means, I can run to honor all the brilliant Air Force Officers I know and love without traveling to Dayton, OH.

This opportunity feels especially poignant for me because my favorite AF officer died last month.

Running the #AFMarathon this year feels exactly right. So, I went all in with the Fly! Fight! Win! Half Challenge. That's a 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon in honor of all my favorite flyers!
