About the race
The USAA Frogman 5K Trail Run presented by Moore Buick GMC is scheduled for March 20, 2027, in Jacksonville, North Carolina, at 7105 Western Blvd. The event was created in 2012 to honor the wish of a fallen SEAL and to support combat wounded veterans and outdoor activities; proceeds will benefit SE Outdoors and the Jacksonville-Onslow Sports Commission.
The in-person race is a 5K wooded trail through a property known as the "400-acres." The course is described as predominantly flat and was created specifically for this event. Awards include medals for top overall male and female, top overall male and female masters, and first place in each age division. Every finisher receives a finisher medal. A two hour time limit applies. Dogs are not allowed unless they are service animals, and strollers are not permitted on the trail except for a designated assistance program.
A Virtual 5K option allows participants to run remotely during a specified window in March. T-shirts are available as an additional purchase during registration, with an ordering deadline of March 11. Packet pickup is planned for March 19 at two local retail locations: Fleet Feet Jacksonville at 1154 Western Blvd and Extreme Outfitters at 100 Western Blvd. There is no parking for runners at the event site; participants must use shuttle parking and shuttle service to the venue.
