Tough YES, but not too tough for runners capable of covering the 13.1 miles.&nbsp; This course starts and finishes on the airfield at Camp Merrill.&nbsp; Almost all of the half marathon course is off-pavement on service roads that curl through the Appalachian Mountains, only feet from the Appalachian Trail. &nbsp;Challenge yourself with two grueling hills where America’s best soldiers are trained. Parking is abundant. &nbsp;Food and Beverage will be available at the on-post service Club, The Overhang, after the event. &nbsp;This includes beer and wine and a full menu. &nbsp;You can count on some active duty Rangers to be running the course.&nbsp; Please visit (link) for further information and to register, or just buy a shirt and support our Ranger Vets.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Ranger Challenge - 5K OR 10K Plus Half Marathon</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: small;">Sign up for two races - the 5K <strong>OR,&nbsp;</strong> the 10K on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">SUNDAY</span>, November 9th <strong>AND</strong> the half marathon on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">SATURDAY</span>, November 8th, for an extra challenge!</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: small;">*Pre-registration strongly requested for planning purposes.
