Miller Lite to Sponsor 5th Annual Ft. Worth Marines Mud Run

WHAT:

The U.S. Marines of NAS-JRB Ft. Worth will host their 5th Annual Mud Run. More than 700 civilians are expected to participate in this year's 10k obstacle course. Participants will run, slip, slosh and crawl their way through some of the thickest mud as they vie for the title of Marine Mud Run Champion.

The event, presented by Miller Lite, will help raise funds for the Tarrant and Dallas County Young Marines Organization. With the assistance of the U.S. Marines, all participants will cross the finish line. The annual 10k race is open to the public and requires advance registration via the Mud Run Website. This year's race is expected to raise more than $6,000 for the Young Marines program.
