SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. --  The 13th annual United States Air Force Marathon will be held Sept. 19 at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio. Air Mobility Command will again sponsor an active duty team comprised of both male and female runners representing various age groups who compete in the full marathon. Team members will be selected based upon submitted AF Form 303. The completed forms should be submitted through your base Fitness Center by July 3. Those selected will be notified by HQ AMC/A1S and placed on permissive TDY for the marathon.

In addition to the official AMC competitive team, all others interested in competing in the Air Force Marathon are encouraged to do so at their own expense. Other events include a wheelchair division of the marathon (consisting of hand-cranked and push-rim divisions), half marathon, individual 10K, and 5K. The USAF Marathon, Half Marathon, and 10K are held on 19 Sept 09 and the 5K race is held Sept. 18 at Wright State University.
