Why Race

This event is hosted by the Navy Region Southwest Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) Program. The event raises funds to support Quality of Life Programs for Navy personnel.

MWR provides healthy and affordable fitness and recreation opportunities at each of the five Navy bases in San Diego County.

MWR operates multiple gymnasiums and fitness centers, swimming pools and beaches, free movie theaters, bowling lanes, golf courses, discount ticket offices, marinas, gear rental centers, youth and teen recreation centers, child care centers, food and beverage facilities, and more. MWR is also the event planner for the military.

Beyond the Bridge Run, MWR produces fitness and sporting competitions, educational activities, military child appreciation event, on-going Community Recreation trips, leisure skill classes and recreation programs and seasonal celebrations such as our Spring Fling, Freedom Festival, Beach Bash and the Family Holiday Party. Thank you for supporting our Sailors and their families!
