40th Anniversary Gate To Gate Memorial Run/Walk Calendar Event May 16, 2026

A Legacy of Honor, A Return to Tradition

This Armed Forces Day, we invite you to be part of a historic moment as the Gate To Gate Memorial Run/Walkย celebrates its 40th Anniversary by returning to its roots as a true gate-to-gate race. As a cornerstone of Eglinโ€™s 96 FSS tribute to America 250, this landmark event proudly links four decades of local tradition with 250 years of our nationโ€™s enduring spirit of service and sacrifice.

More than just a race, the Gate To Gate is a 4.4-mile journey of remembrance along its classic course. We run and walk to pay solemn tribute to Americaโ€™s heroesโ€”the brave men and women from all branches who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our freedoms. Join Team Eglin and the entire Northwest Florida community as we come together to show our unwavering support for those who have dedicated their lives to protecting our country.

Whether you are a competitive runner striving for a personal best on the restored course or a family walking in quiet reflection, your presence makes a powerful statement. We invite you to dedicate your journey to a lost loved one, a military hero in your own life, or to all who have served. As we celebrate these incredible milestones, our foundational purpose remains resolute: to honor the fallen and remember their legacy.
