First to Fight 250K Challenge

First to Fight 250K Challenge

Honor the legacy of the United States Marine Corps by completing the First to Fight 250K Challenge, a nationwide virtual challenge. Participants complete 250 kilometers (155 miles) at their own pace between August 1 and November 10.

All participants receive an exclusive, challenge-specific commemorative coin. Proceeds support MCA’s professional development programs for Marines.

An anonymous donor has stepped up in a big way by matching every registration fee for the Forged in Freedom 250-Mile Challenge and the First to Fight 250K Challenge.

Every mile you complete delivers double the impact in support of MCA’s programs for today’s Marines.

Register now—because this year, your miles go twice as far.

Registration: $50

Register for both 2026 virtual challenges and receive 10% off your total registration.
