Mission Focus
Are you running the MCM as a tribute to a loved one serving this country or in memory of their sacrifice? Are you participating to stare down a change in health condition, whether yours or a loved ones? Are you inspired to show pride in country? Is your motivation to conquer a distance that once seemed unconquerable? What drives you to participate in the MCM? Organized by the men and women of the United States Marine Corps, the MCM celebrates the honor, courage and commitment of all finishers. Annually, the MCM hosts runners from all 50 states and more than 60 countries. When confronted by a global pandemic, MCM participants proved to be #VirtuallyUnstoppable. In 2021, the MCM will begin as a virtual-only event yet the values and esprit de corps that drive the event remain powerful enough to propel runners to the finish on courses of their own making in locations across the globe.
