Join us for the Boston Marine Corps Honor Run 5K in 2026, as we continue our tradition of honoring the brave men and women who have served in the U.S. Marine Corps. This annual event began with the mission to raise awareness and support for veterans and military families, while also fostering a sense of community and pride for those who have sacrificed for our freedom.

Continuing the tradition will be the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation. The Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation is the Nation’s oldest and largest provider of need-based scholarships to military children, with particular attention given to those whose parent has been killed or wounded in combat, or who have demonstrated financial need. Since its inception in 1962, the Scholarship Foundation has awarded over 70,000 scholarships valued at $235,000,000. There were 2,886 scholarships awarded this past year.

We are proud to have Fisher House Boston return as a charity partner. Fisher House Boston provides a home away from home for military and veterans' families while their loved ones are receiving treatment at local hospitals. The foundation plays a crucial role in ensuring that families can stay close to their service members during difficult times, at no cost to them. Your participation in the Honor Run will directly support Fisher House Boston and its ongoing mission to serve military families in need.

The Boston Marine Corps Honor Run 5K is more than just a race—it is a celebration of our military's legacy, a time to come together in support of those who served, and an opportunity to give back to the community. Whether you're a runner, walker, or supporter, your involvement will help us honor the men and women who have given so much.

Don't miss out on this incredible event—mark your calendars for 2026 and get ready for an unforgettable race at Castle Island, all while supporting our military non-profits!
