DECEMBER 17, 2024 – Space Launch Delta 45 hosted the Space Force’s third annual T-Minus 10-Miler, Dec. 14, at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
Participants from around the globe joined to take part in the race while admiring CCSFS’s rich history challenging participants to reach the “edge of outer space” together, blending fitness with space history and camaraderie.
The 10-mile race is part of the annual Space Force birthday celebration and takes place surrounded by space launch history.
Highlighting the Guardian Spirit, the physical challenge of the race can represent the demanding nature of launch operations, where endurance and mental fortitude are paramount.
Not only did the 10-mile course test the runners’ endurance, it also offered a unique opportunity to view historical sites such as the ATLAS intercontinental ballistic missile, this year’s featured rocket, Apollo 1 memorial site and Launch Complex-19, known for its major Titan II/Gemini missions.
