Lace up your shoes for the Joggin' for Frogmen 5K - Shadow Events on Saturday, June 13, 2026. This unique event, while registered in Doylestown, PA, offers participants the flexibility to complete their 3.1-mile run, walk, or ruck wherever they choose. Born from a mission to honor the sacrifices of Naval Special Warfare (NSW) service members and support their families, the Joggin' for Frogmen series was founded in 2011 following the EXTORTION 17 tragedy, and all proceeds benefit the Travis Manion Foundation. This allows you to join a nationwide movement dedicated to empowering veterans and families of fallen heroes, making every step count towards a profound cause.
As a "shadow event" participant, you'll receive a race packet shipped directly to you in May, containing a stylish event shirt, a commemorative medal, and for those who choose to ruck, a custom GORUCK patch. Whether you tackle your 5K on local trails, your neighborhood streets, or even a treadmill, you'll be part of a larger community united in purpose. Typical race day conditions in Doylestown for mid-June feature pleasant highs around 80°F and lows near 58°F, with a modest 19% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for your chosen course. Participants are encouraged to share their experiences and photos, tagging @JogginForFrogmen to connect with fellow runners and contribute to the virtual album.
