On September 19 and 20 the LIFE Runners team will be at Wright Air Force base in Dayton, Ohio for the Air Force Half/Full Marathon and LIFE Runners free 5K.  If you didn’t sign up/train for the AF Half or Full Marathon, no worries, run the LIFE Runners free 5K.

Then plan to cheer on the largest team in the Half/Full Marathon.
