The Navy and Marine Corps Freedom 5K celebrates the birthdays of our Sea Services and honors the sacrifices of those who have gone before us to support and defend our freedom.
In 2026, this event will be offered virtually and in-person with 'goodies' (shirt and medal)!
Online registration will be open until September 26th at 11:59. In-person registration will be available the morning of the race on October 3rd, but shirt size will not be guaranteed.
Thank you for joining The University of Memphis Gold Company in building everlasting camaraderie as our Naval Services celebrate another year and as we pay tribute to the sacrifices of our Veterans. All support and funds will go towards the University of Memphis Navy ROTC.
