Boot Camp Challenge 3-Mile Obstacle Run

The Boot Camp Challenge is a 3-mile obstacle race held at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) in San Diego, one of only two locations where Marine Corps boot camp occurs. Open to the public for one day annually, the course features obstacles similar to those faced by Marine recruits, with encouragement from over 60 Marine Corps Drill Instructors. Designed for all fitness levels, participants can skip obstacles without penalty.

The event celebrates the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Marine Corps and offers unique prizes, including a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Spectators enjoy free admission, entertainment, and Marine Corps cultural displays. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
