Granite Mountain Hotshots Virtual Run / Walk

The Granite Mountain Hotshots Virtual Run / Walk offers a unique opportunity to honor the brave legacy of the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots who made the ultimate sacrifice fighting the Yarnell Hill Fire on June 30, 2013. This inspiring, month-long virtual event runs from March 1 to March 31, 2026, allowing participants to join from anywhere at their own pace and on their chosen course. Whether you prefer a scenic trail, your neighborhood streets, or a treadmill, you can complete a 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk, 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon distance.

This isn't just a race; it's a powerful act of remembrance, strength, and unity, supporting the vital mission of the Granite Mountain Interagency Hotshot Crew Learning & Tribute Center in Prescott, Arizona. The Center works to preserve artifacts, honor the fallen, and educate the public about wildland fire, firefighting, and prevention. Your participation helps keep their memory alive and contributes to critical wildfire education.

Every registered participant receives an official event T-shirt and a digital race bib to commemorate their involvement in this meaningful tribute. Whether you run solo or form a team with friends, family, or colleagues, the Granite Mountain Hotshots Virtual Run / Walk provides a flexible and impactful way to move with purpose and honor with heart.
