Additional Information

Registration for the Marine Corps Marathon and 10K Team Operation Homefront is now open! Here are a few things to keep in mind before you register:

When you submit your registration think of it as a placeholder. We have purchased slots for the race and your registration with us holds one of those slots. Operation Homefront will register you for your race (i.e. you’ll be officially registered with the race) in July or August 2013. Registering with the link below will guarantee you a space with our team: so long as you meet the fundraising requirement.
You will raise the minimum of $250 before Operation Homefront will register you. If you do not reach the $250 minimum by August 2^nd you will not be registered.
You may also choose to affiliate with an Operation Homefront Chapter or Field Office and have the required $250 or $500 fundraising minimum you raise directly routed to that specific area. Select the DC Metro Chapter when you register and your fundraising page will be linked to the Chapter’s website to aid with your fundraising efforts.
Should you not be able to run the race, you are unable to reach the fundraising minimum or you choose not to run with Team Operation Homefront please know that your registration fee and any fundraising money already turned in will not be refunded.
Register with an email address you check regularly. Team Operation Homefront will send periodic correspondence through email, it is important you check the newsletters and e-blasts that we sent (roughly 102 a month) as there will be important information, deadlines, training tips and fundraising hints included.
If you have questions about Team Operation Homefront, the fundraising requirement or the refund policy, please email marathon@operationhomefront.net
