ATM RACE RULES ATM RACE DAY POLICY: The race takes place rain or shine.

No deferments. No race day packet pick-up. Entry fees non-refundable.

TIMING AND RESULTS The ATM uses the IPICO system to time and score runners. It begins timing your race the instant you cross the start line. So don’t worry if it takes you several minutes to reach the start — those extra minutes won’t be counted towards your official race time.

To ensure timing accuracy, please make sure your race bib is:

• Clearly visible on the front of your torso • Unaltered and unmodified (Do not fold or wrinkle.)

• Pinned in all four corners • Is not covered (with jackets, runner belts, water bottles, etc.)

To be eligible to receive an official race time and results, runners must…

• Cross the “start”, “10K” and “finish” timing mats • Maintain a 15-minute-mile pace or better • Complete the entire course • Finish the race within two hours, 30 minutes Slower participants will be turned at 14th Street and Independence Avenue and will not be allowed to complete the entire course. Anyone not completing the entire course will not receive an official race result.

RACE BIB POLICY Race bib swapping is not allowed. Any unregistered runner that competes with a registered runner’s race bib will be disqualified.

If the unregistered race bib number is associated with a team, the whole team will be disqualified from the competition. ATM officials take a firm position on handing off race bib numbers due to liability issues and the adverse impact on scoring, results and awards. Bibs with word “virtual” on them are not permitted on the ATM Race Course.

INSPIRATIONAL STORY #1

Virginia Soldier Undergoing Chemo Registers for Army Ten-Miler as Motivation to Maintain Fitness and Career Goals The Army Ten-Miler (ATM) was created to support Army outreach, build morale, and promote physical fitness, so it isn’t surprising that the race not only draws a large contingent of active duty and retired military, but also many who use the challenge of participation to achieve their own health and wellness goals. Among those, Virginia Army National Guard Sergeant (SGT) Isaac Frazier has a unique story.

Early this year the young Combat Medic Specialist (68 Whiskey) was selected to go to Fort Moore, Ga. in support of full-time operations at the Warrior Training Center (WTC), but shortly before he was due to report he was diagnosed with Stage 2 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, putting the brakes on everything. As a healthy, 25-year-old with no other medical issues who always maintained his fitness level, to say Frazier was shocked is an understatement.

“I was training all last year with a goal of Special Forces Assessment & Selection (SFAS) and eventually making my way to qualify as a Special Operations Combat Medic, and into the Special Forces community. My diagnosis placed an immediate hurdle into the process,” said Frazier. “Chemo has affected my training quite significantly. I dropped about 20 pounds of body weight in the first month post-surgery and leading into chemo.

I have chemo every other Tuesday, and usually during the treatment weeks I’m unable to train much at all from Tuesday through Friday. I start training the Saturday after each chemo week with a run/walk to help flush out the chemo. I then have Saturday through the following Monday to train, giving me roughly nine days to reset.”

SGT Frazier decided to run the 2024 ATM following his diagnosis, noting that he has always loved to set goals in his life, especially related to physical fitness, and beyond being motivational, preparing for the Army’s Race aligned perfectly with the initial prognosis of treatments running into September.

Born in South Korea and adopted as an infant, Frazier was raised with four siblings in Lynchburg, VA, where he still resides and has undergone treatments at Centra Hematology/Oncology. He is also a senior at Liberty University, majoring in Health Sciences through Liberty online programs (allowing him to continue his studies during his deployment). He was formerly assigned to Lynchburg based 1st Battalion, 116th Infantry Regiment HHC, 29th Infantry Division, deployed with Alpha Company 1-116, and only recently transferred to Winchester based 3rd Battalion.

He enlisted in the Virginia Army National Guard in 2018, as he always wanted to serve. Working as a lifeguard while in high school, Frazier loved learning basic first aid and lifesaving and became an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) in 2017, volunteering with Campbell County Fire & Rescue before joining the military.

While he began the enlistment process with Virginia Air National Guard, he realized that Army combat medic was a better fit and would also provide civilian credentialing. His full-time job since 2020 is as a medic

INSPIRATIONAL STORY #1

at a Level 1 Trauma Center - Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital. This role was created by the Department of Veterans Services and is called the Military Medics and Corpsman Program (MMAC), allowing current and former military medical personnel to carry their military credentials into a civilian role. According to Frazier, “It took me from the pre-hospital side to the clinical side. We receive trauma patients and respond to all the different codes and medical emergencies in the hospital. My military experience allows me to be able to do more than a civilian EMT.” As an Army National Guardsman, SGT Frazier serves a traditional one weekend per month schedule. He has been mobilized over five times stateside and spent 2021-2022 supporting Operation Enduring FreedomCombined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa (OEF-CJTFHOA), primarily on an outpost in southern Somalia.

While his road to the Army Ten-Miler is unique, Frazier has always enjoyed running and competed in numerous races through the years, with half-marathon his longest distance. He grew up an athlete, with soccer his number one sport from early childhood through high school. He also ran cross-country and track in high school originally to maintain fitness in the soccer off-season and picked up disc golf with his family – eventually playing for Liberty’s golf disc team and later professionally.

Not surprisingly, Frazier’s immediate goal is achieving a consistent training schedule to get back into general shape, utilizing a combination of running, lifting, calisthenics and general strength and conditioning. He prefers solo running outdoors, no matter the weather, on a mix of trails, paths and roads and doesn’t like treadmills at all. If he is unable to run during the day, he has access to outdoor running locations that are well lit.

Beyond fitness, Frazier holds a nutrition coach certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) that helps him understand and maintain a healthy diet and hit his nutritional goals as well as his physical fitness.

INSPIRATIONAL STORY #1

Frazier has been surrounded by extremely supportive family, friends and colleagues throughout his entire medical odyssey, providing love, motivation and strength to fight through the treatments. On the training side, a few other Soldiers from his battalion unit who run ATM every year have supported his preparations and encouraged him to register. In turn, he has even persuaded some of senior leadership to participate, reporting, “they see how dedicated I have been in achieving my goals - whether fitness, service, or beating cancer - and want to support me as I strive to achieve these goals.”

“Of course, I had to put my career on hold for several months as we figured out what the future would look like with treatment. I still plan to pursue a career in the military and attend SFAS and SOCM. I need to get my feet back under me and to get back to the performance level I was at prior to this diagnosis and treatment,” Frazier said.

The very best news of all? While SGT Isaac Frazier’s medical team anticipated he would finish chemo treatments in mid-September, his May PET Scan showed it was almost completely resolved, he completed his final chemo treatment in June, and on Tuesday, July 16 he was pronounced cancer-free.

INSPIRATIONAL STORY #2

Redstone Arsenal’s DEVCOM Aviation & Missile Center (AvMC) Personnel Heading to ATM in the Spirit of Team Building and Esprit de Corps The hundreds of teams competing each year in the Army Ten-Miler run the gamut from active-duty military, military academies, ROTC, government agencies and multiple other official categories, to family groups (often honoring a fallen Soldier), friends, school groups, nonprofits and corporate. Their reasons for running vary widely, as do their methods of training, level of experience and geographic proximity, but each October they make their way to the Pentagon starting line and hit the streets of the Nation’s Capital.

The AvMC team, according to Buchheit, is intended for people who just want to participate and run the ATM representing their organization and having a good time.

“We have 37 runners signed up, a total of five separate teams. Our first year participating we had 10-12 folks registered and last year, AvMC had 21 runners complete the race. We do have several individuals who are pretty fast but most of us are just run-of-the-mill runners who enjoy it.”Some fun facts among this year’s AvMC teams?

And while Redstone Arsenal (Huntsville, Ala.) is among those sending multiple official teams, the installation’s Aviation & Missile Center (AvMC) has registered five teams, according to Nathan A. Buchheit, Ph.D. (Chief, Operations Division) who says coordinating participation for AvMC personnel is an opportunity for unit team building and esprit de corps. “All of our work force, Soldiers, DA civilians, contractors, and family members are encouraged to sign up. The 2024 ATM is our third year; the first time was right before COVID 19 and then again in 2023.”

• Age range – 23 to 68 years old (plus three Youth Run participants)

Redstone Arsenal has a strong history of supporting multiple very competitive teams at the Army Ten-Miler year-to-year, and in fact, from 2007-2019, Redstone won 13 consecutive government agency championships and 11 consecutive all comers’ titles. They returned in 2023 (after a few years of missing the ATM) and picked up where they left off, once again capturing both of those titles and collecting their 26th trophies!

• 23 men and 14 women • 36 civilians and 1 Soldier (AvMC is an overwhelmingly civilian organization) The civilian mix includes AvMC government contractors and family members – three of them Ph.D.s, and a mother & daughter pair who are both government employees. Buchheit reports that quite a few families and friends will also travel to DC to cheer their runners on with several of them buying team shirts to be recognized as they offer support along the route.

AvMC – which falls under U. S. Army Futures Command (AFC) and U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) - is a predominantly civilian organization housed largely at Redstone Arsenal with additional staff at Joint Base Langley-Eustis (Newport News, Va.) and Moffett Field (Mountain View, Calif.).

Staff are primarily engineers and scientists.

INSPIRATIONAL STORY #2

While many of the participants are based at Redstone, for a variety of reasons the team members do not train together – whether due to different work schedules and locations, different preference for early morning or late evening running, and a variety of running skill levels. That said, most of them are regular runners, and some even regularly compete in community runs and even triathlons. Additionally, Huntsville Track Club offers training programs in which some of Redstone’s participate.

Prior to his current civilian role at AvMC, team organizer Buchheit served 32 years in the U.S. Army, beginning as an enlisted man, becoming an officer and retiring from Redstone’s Aviation & Missile center. His service included stints at the Pentagon and three years teaching at West Point.

Army Ten-Miler is also very much a family affair for Buchheit and his wife, with two nieces running, and their grandnieces competing in the ATM Youth Run. While Redstone’s AvMC team is unofficial, they are grateful to their local AUSA for extending support and look forward to seeing everyone on the streets of Washington on October 13.

INSPIRATIONAL STORY #3

Amazon Is A New Major Sponsor of Army Ten-Miler First-year Army Ten-Miler Major Sponsor Amazon is committed to supporting the military veteran community, making their partnership with The Army’s Race a natural fit. In 2021, the company pledged to hire 100,000 veterans and military spouses worldwide by 2024, and in January they exceeded that goal. The company, with its second headquarters located in Arlington, VA, also offers a range of career programs to assist transitioning service members and military spouses, including prepaid tuition programs, mentorships, military spouse support, and deployment benefits.

Solutions Architecture Senior Manager Tom Rascon is a prime example of a military veteran on the Amazon team, for which the 20-year U.S. Army Veteran serves at Amazon Web Services (AWS) on the organization’s Department of Defense team (DOD). He’s also an ATM veteran having run the race in Washington eight times, plus one ATM Shadow Run. Noting that he was literally born into the U.S. Army, entering the world at Womack Army Medical Center on Fort Bragg (now Fort Liberty) where his father was stationed, moving around a lot in his early years, and then, “I primarily grew up in West

Virginia and went to West Virginia University, earning an Army ROTC scholarship while a freshman. The Army of the 80s and 90s was very much a running Army, pushups, sit-ups and running, that’s what we did.”

Rascon earned his BS in mechanical engineering and was commissioned but didn’t have to report to his Officer Basic Course (OBC) in El Paso until November, so he remained at WVU as a Gold Bar Recruiter (GBR), talking to high school students and visiting expos among other tasks. He and an ROTC Captain decided to put together a team of cadets for the upcoming Army Ten-Miler which led him to complete his first one in 1995.

Following OBC, Rascon was stationed in Hawaii and spent much of his military career in Army Special Operations and Joint Special Operations. He was frequently deployed and away from home, so he didn’t think of Army Ten-Miler again until he was stationed at Camp Arifjan, Kuwait and an official ATM Shadow Run was conducted at Camp Buehring. According to Rascon, “We went up and ran with a lot more sand, more heat and terrible winds. Regardless of which direction you ran, it was a headwind full of sand. I think they do it in Kuwait for that exact reason, getting a morale boost, maintaining fitness, being part of a community…it makes all the sense in the world that there were a lot of willing participants to go out and run 10 miles in the sand.”

Since his retirement in 2015, Rascon has not only run the ATM multiple times (excluding 2019 and 2020) most years he has organized colleagues and friends to compete as well.

On race day, look for the familiar sight of Amazon’s delivery trucks along the route and its iconic banana stands will be operating in the Hooah Tent Zone for a post-race potassium treat. Originally introduced at the company’s Seattle headquarters, Amazon’s banana stands provide free bananas to the public as founder Jeff Bezos wanted to offer a healthy snack that didn’t require washing or extra packaging.

ATM PHILANTHROPIC SPONSORS

2024 Army Ten-Miler Philanthropic Sponsors

Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) began in 2003 as a small, grassroots effort providing simple care and comfort items to the hospital bedsides of the first wounded service members returning home from the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. As their post-service needs evolved, so have our programs and services. Today, through our direct programs in mental health, career counseling, and long-term rehabilitative care, along with our advocacy efforts, we improve the lives of millions of warriors and their families.

In 2004, a determined group of military spouses saw firsthand the challenges faced by wounded Marines and Sailors returning from Iraq. They quickly took action to ensure these service members and their families were never alone or forgotten. In 2012, The Fund expanded their support to include all service branches. Today, 20 years later, Semper Fi & America’s Fund continues to embrace our combat wounded, critically ill, and catastrophically injured active duty and Veteran communities.
