In memory of Major Megan McClung, USMC, this annual race has been established to raise money for charity. All proceeds benefit the Wounded Marine Program (a non-profit 503c charity). The Marines Helping Marines, Wounded Marines Program, was established in the spring of 2003 at the Bethesda Naval Hospital to provide extensive support for injured Marine Corps personnel and Navy FMF Corpsmen. Since then the program has grown to include Balboa Naval Hospital, San Diego; Brooke Army Hospital, San Antonio; Walter Reed Hospital, Washington DC and the Wounded Warrior Regiment at both Camp Pendleton and Camp LeJeune.
Businesses and individuals making sponsorship donations shall be recognized throughout the race and in publicity announcements. All donors will be listed on the website and anyone donating $200 or more will be displayed on the back of the race t-shirts. Your pledge will affirm your support for the men and women who risked their lives with honor and courage to bring freedom and human dignity to a suffering people.
We thank you for your support in this endeavor.
