For the first time this year, Team Fox will be representing at the Marine Corps Marathon & 10K on October 25. Here are 10 great reasons why you should join our 10K team today:
It’s free!
A perk of running with Team Fox: we cover your race registration fee.
No gym membership required
If you hate how expensive the gym is, fear not: Running is completely free. All you need are your sneakers and the open road.
Training fits into your schedule.
It could be hard to find the time to train for a longer distance race; not so with a 10K! Take advantage of the cool summer mornings or nights to fit in your training runs. Plus, by signing up as a Team Fox member, you will get a virtual training program from our coaches at Hot Bird Running.
It's a great distance for new and experienced runners.
New to the running world? A 10K is a great distance to ease yourself into the sport. Have a longer distance race coming up? Use the Marine Corps 10K as a warm up or to mix in with your training.
Make new friends
Connect with other Team Fox members who are passionate about finding a cure for Parkinson’s disease and become part of our growing global community of Team Fox athletes.
Score Team Fox swag
Anyone who signs up to run with Team Fox will receive a branded running singlet to proudly wear on race day – so everyone will know your making you're miles count.
A reason to carb-load
The night before the race, join Foundation staff in D.C. for a pre-race dinner with your fellow teammates. Enjoy some well-earned carbs, swap training stories and get excited to conquer the course together in support of Parkinson’s research. Then, meet members of our Team Fox staff who will be stationed along the course to cheer you on the next morning.
The scenery
The course is a memorable one. Take in the fall foliage while you run through the nation’s capital and past its iconic monuments.
Thank your nation’s veterans
In addition to being formally organized by the United States Marine Corps, the MCM weekend is renowned for engaging thousands of American military personnel who both volunteer for and participate in the race. Take this unique opportunity to thank our Nation’s Veterans at the race, all while raising awareness for Parkinson’s research.
Your miles will have 100 percent impact.
Thanks to the support of an anonymous donor, 100 percent of Team Fox proceeds will go directly to research efforts to help speed a cure for Parkinson’s.
Team Fox has limited entries into the Marine Corps Marathon as well! Secure your spot today and join us on October 25.
