The event includes two timed running distances:
- 3.1 Miles (Be The One 5K)
- 6.2 Miles (Be The One 10K)
Participation rules and fees are published for each distance. Registration opens March 1, 2026 and closes April 1, 2026. The registration fee for the 5K is $35.00 and for the 10K is $45.00. Anyone age 10 and older may participate if they are in good health, have signed the liability waiver, and completed online registration. Children under age 10 may run or walk free of charge when accompanied by a registered parent or guardian. All 10K entrants are required to run rather than walk for safety reasons.
The event is described as a space for neighbors, friends, and families to honor veterans, share stories, and remember those who died by suicide.
