Volunteer Phil Cyr holds his son Brandon Cyr's flag at the Marine Corps Marathon. Volunteers can stand alongside Gold Star family members, Active Duty members and other civilian supporters on the line!

Want to be part of an incredible experience that help honor the service and sacrifice of the American Military? wear blue: run to remember works towards that mission. As part of our efforts, we'll be holding American flags near portraits of fallen American servicemembers along the Marine Corps Historic Half Marathon in Fredericksburg, VA on May 17th. All volunteers will need to do is hold an American flag alongside the race course. T-shirts will be provided to volunteers that don't have a "wear blue" shirt. We also provide the flags and light refreshments. For more information on our organization and mission you can go to www.wearblueruntoremember.org
