Veterans Outreach Center is excited to be able to host this year’s Pound the Ground 5K Run/Walk in-person and virtually! Lace up your running shoes and get ready to run, walk, or stroll for veterans!
Want to run as a team? You can! Participants have the option to set up their own teams – whether it’s friends, family, or co-workers, you can all participate together!
The coveted Golden Boot is up for grabs again this year! Active duty military, active reservists, and veterans can sign up to run with members from their branch. The quickest team gets their branch name on the boot! Will anyone stop the Navy from winning their fifth year in a row?
