This race runs through Camp Shelby Joint Forces Center, a military installation that gives the course a distinct, no-frills character. Entry is free, but each participant is asked to bring canned goods or toiletries, which go directly to the installation's family food pantry. Soldiers, civilians, and their families all run together on the same course.
