Many of the people in our Circles of Remembrance are veterans. Every Saturday, they say the names of the friends they served with and lost.
They keep showing up so no one is forgotten.
Today, on Veterans Day, we honor them. Thank you for your service, and for remembering with us. 💙

Today, we honor and remember LCpl Devin Hernandez, a United States Marine who died following a fast-rope training incident in Japan.
Today, we remember Devin and recognize his service and sacrifice. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, fellow Marines, friends, and all those who knew and loved him.
Before he was a Marine, he was a son, a friend, and a life woven into the lives of others. His memory deserves to be carried forward with gratitude and honor.
Honor and Remember, LCpl Devin Hernandez.

Marathons are hard. Grieving alone is harder.
For nearly five years, I felt alone and lost. Grief takes each of us down dark paths. The best way I can describe what this experience meant: wear blue was the lantern, and the team, coaches and athletes were the light inside it.
I often tell my Marines to stay aggressive, that momentum is the best medicine when life gets hard. I didn’t realize how much I needed my own advice.
The friendships you build along the road do more than support you. They help heal you, and they make you proud in ways you can’t imagine.
Saying my brother’s name, and hearing the stories of my friends’ loved ones, gave me a renewed sense of purpose. I felt Armando with me in a way I hadn’t since he was here. He was out on that course motivating strangers, showing kindness, and modeling grit.
To anyone thinking about joining wear blue: do it.
I’m forever grateful to our leaders and my fellow athletes in the MCM ‘26 cohort. Love you guys.

Before sunrise on race day, the Tribute wear blue Mile needed two things: volunteers in place and volunteers fed.
@ezgovehicles had us covered on the first. Their golf carts moved volunteers, flags, and supplies up and down the course to ensure every flag was waving before the first runner arrived.
@7eleven had us covered on the second. Their team showed up with a hot breakfast and coffee, which makes a big impact at 5 a.m. in late October. They also showed up ready to volunteer on the Mile, holding flags and standing beside until the last runner had passed.
The Mile honors the fallen. Partners like these make sure the people holding the flags are there to run it. Thank you, EZ-GO and 7-Eleven. 💙

In a letter to my family, my brother Jarrod asked us to share his story if he didn’t come home. Last month, I ran the Marine Corps Marathon to honor his wish.
Twenty weeks ago, I joined 11 strangers and our coaches on a journey to honor our loved ones and cross a finish line. What I didn’t expect was to find a village.
We pushed ourselves physically, emotionally, and mentally. We ran through the hard days, celebrated the victories, shared our grief, and showed up for one another. We became friends, united by grief but not defined by it.
Race weekend is something I wish I could freeze in time. Seeing Jarrod’s picture on the Tribute wear blue Mile, that familiar smile, reminded me exactly why I started. Every mile was worth it. Hugging my parents, who have endured the greatest of losses, and standing together to honor Jarrod is a gift I won’t take for granted.
I started this journey hoping to run a marathon in my brother’s honor. I finished with so much more: new friendships, a stronger version of myself, and a community I’ll carry long after the miles are behind me.
I learned that showing up matters, and that grief and joy can coexist. I’m forever grateful to wear blue, my cohort, our coaches, my family and friends, and for the opportunity to keep honoring my brother.

Our Gold Star and Survivor Endurance Program athletes get to the start line with help from @comcast and @fisherhousefdtn’s Hero Miles program. Thank you for bringing families like Jessica’s to the Tribute wear blue Mile.

Every flag on the Tribute wear blue Mile carries a name.
Each flag was tagged with the name of a fallen service member before the race had even started. Volunteers held those names high. Runners slowed down to ask for certain ones. Families cam out to hold them.
Those flag tags were made possible by JLL. Thank you for helping make sure every flagpole on the Mile carried someone’s story, not just the colors. 💙

From the first step to the finish line, Allison showed up with purpose at the Marine Corps Marathon. 💙
Allison took on 26.2 miles, carrying the memory and legacy of our fallen with every step. From the excitement of race weekend to the challenge of marathon day, her journey is a reminder of what makes this community so special.
Every mile is an opportunity to honor, remember, and keep their stories alive. And every runner has a reason that carries them forward.
Allison, thank you for being part of our wear blue community and for honoring the fallen through action. 🇺🇸

Not every mile is run for a finish line or a personal record. Our most powerful steps carry forward a legacy of service, courage, and sacrifice.
Last weekend at the Marine Corps Marathon, we witnessed the depth of active remembrance. We felt it along the Tribute wear blue Mile, lined with the Faces of the Fallen and lifted up by volunteers cheering, ringing cowbells, and holding American flags high. We saw it in runners carrying our fallen heroes' names across 26.2 miles, and in our 12 Gold Star and Survivor Endurance Program athletes, who ran every step in honor of the people they love.
And we were reminded of something we say often: we never remember alone.
That feeling isn’t saved for one race a year. It is the heartbeat of what happens at local wear blue: run to remember Community Runs across the country.
Every run is free, volunteer-led and open to all abilities, whether you walk, jog or run. We start with a Circle of Remembrance, holding the names of fallen service members in our hands and our hearts and speaking them aloud. We honor and remember all who died while serving, whatever the cause. Then we step off together at our own pace.
Our Community Runs are a place of deep connection, healthy living, emotional safety, and purpose. You don't need to run a marathon. You don't need to be fast. You just need to show up for those who served and the families who carry their legacy every day.
If you’ve been looking for a deeper purpose in your movement, for a community that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with you, or for a meaningful way to choose active remembrance, there is a place for you here.
Find a Community Run near you and take purposeful steps with us.
Community. Movement. Remembrance. Let’s keep moving forward, together.

From the starter’s pistol to the last cheer, Jamie showed up for every moment of Marine Corps Marathon weekend. 💙
As a wear blue ambassador, volunteer, and Gold Star sister, Jamie kicked off the weekend by firing the starter’s pistol at the inaugural MCM 8K, explored the MCM Expo, and finished on the wear blue Mile, cheering on runners as they carried their fallen heroes with them.
Every moment is a reminder that this weekend is about more than miles. It’s about community, remembrance, and showing up for those who gave everything in service to our country.
Jamie, thank you for being part of our wear blue community and helping us honor the fallen through action. 🇺🇸

Every mile has its people. At the MCM Tribute wear blue Mile, some of ours were in Blue Cross and Blue Shield Federal Employee Program blue.💙
Year after year, this team shows up to honor the fallen and lift the runners who carry their names.
Leslie keeps everything running smoothly, and slices oranges at lightning speed!
And when marathoners need a boost, Al, James and Tony bring the cheers!
Thank you for being our Tribute wear blue Mile sponsor, and for showing up with heart. You make every step on the Mile a little lighter.
