Time is running out for runners still wanting to register for the sold-out Air Force Marathon.

Through one of the Marathon’s eight Charity Partners, slots for the full and half marathon are still available until July 13.

“This is a great way to still get in the race and do something that gives back to the community,” said Rob Aguiar, Marathon director.

Interested runners should contact the charity of their choice for registration details. Each charity has different fund raising commitments and requirements.
