Air Force Marathon

It’s the 30th Anniversary of the Air Force Marathon! Get ready to make your mark on history at the 30th Anniversary Air Force Marathon, an annual endurance event that takes place on the third Saturday of September at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. Since its inception in 1997 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the U.S. Air Force, this iconic event has celebrated the service, strength, and spirit of the Air Force community.
