The Marine Corps Marathon Organization (MCMO) announced that registration for the Quantico 12K is open to the public on marinemarathon.com. The Quantico 12K will run live and in-person on August 26 aboard Marine Corps Base Quantico.

This 7.46-mile run takes participants through the grounds of Officer Candidates School, offering unique access to the area where future Marine leaders train. Runners are pushed to rise to the challenge and conquer paved streets to gravely paths.

The live event marks the third qualifier for the Distinguished Participant medal. To qualify for this coveted title, runners must register and complete a live event from each of MCMO’s event weekends in 2023:
