_ The 2018 Soldier Marathon & Half Marathon:

Our Soldier Marathon races (full marathon, half marathon, and 5k races) will celebrate their 9th year at the National Infantry Museum.  We run our race on Fort Benning, Georgia and along the beautiful riverwalk to Columbus, Georgia and cross into Phenix City, Alabama.  Our mission is to salute the United States soldier and their families.  Our race proceeds support local military organizations such as the National Infantry Museum, Fort Benning MWR, House of Heroes and Team RWB.
