Museum M1LE

Museum M1LE started in 2023 as a way to provide a family friendly 1 Mile race. On Saturday, June 13, 2026, the grounds of the National Museum of the United States Air Force will transform into an epic one-mile course for runners.

Imagine the thrill as you launch from Memorial Park, winding around the museum hangars before the grand finale—a finish line you’ll never forget! You’ll sprint to victory directly beneath the majestic wings of legendary aircraft in the museum’s Air Park.

This is more than just a race; it’s a chance to create a powerful memory with your family and fellow runners.
