Choose which Branch (Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard, or Space Force) team you want to run with. All participants will receive a custom Battle of the Branches shirt (Military Grey/Green option) as well as a finisher Challenge Coin. Whether you served or supported, come join the fun fitness battle with your fellow brothers and sisters.
