A test of endurance - An
active history lesson |
The Bataan Memorial
Death March is a challenging march through the high desert terrain
of White Sands
Missile Range, N.M., conducted in honor of the heroic service
members who defended the Philippine Islands during World War II,
sacrificing their freedom, health and, in many cases, their very
lives. |
|
Choose between two routes |
|
The GREEN route is the full
26.2-mile Bataan Memorial Death March. Awards are presented to the top
two finishers in each category. Those marching the 26.2 miles will be
able to experience, in part, what Soldiers endured during their long
forced trek through the Philippines.
The
BLUE
route is 15.2 miles in length. This shorter march is
designed for participates who would like to memorialize Bataan but do
not wish to march the full 26.2-mile route. There are NO awards given
for this shorter march.
