Gail joined the board of directors in 2012 and has said “the privilege of serving on the Board gives me the opportunity to give back to all of our military.

Giving back is something that every American should do.” RACE DATE: Saturday, October 10, 2026 LOCATION: Liberty Park, Inverness FL SCHEDULE: 6:30 am Packet Pickup and Day of Race Registration Opens 7:30 am 5K Race Start 7:35 am 1 Mile Walk 8:45 am Awards Ceremony (Approx.
