2027 Frogman Challenge: 5K Trail Run

Race Information

Frogman was created by The Campbell Family in 2012 to honor the wish of their beloved SOC (SEAL) Christopher Campbell. Chris lost his life during Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter, call sign Extortion 17, in which he and 30 others Americans were riding, was shot down on August 6, 2011. The event honors his final wish to support combat wounded veterans, his love for hunting, especially bow hunting, and the outdoors. A wooded trail run through the property known as the “400-acres.” The trail is predominantly flat and should be fun for all. This is a new course, never run before, created especially for Frogman.
