The Joggin’ for Frogman 5K race series, honoring the sacrifices of service members and support families of fallen heroes, is running in San Diego on Saturday, July 30 with the race start and finish located at NTC Park at Liberty Station (2455 Cushing Rd., San Diego). The event kicks off with opening ceremonies at 8:30 a.m. and the race beginning at 9 a.m. REGISTER NOW Honoring naval special warfare service members, the race expanded to a five-race national series in 2022 with events in Pittsburgh, PA (May 21), Mesa, AZ (June 4), Jacksonville, FL (June 11), Virginia Beach, VA (July 9) and San Diego, CA (July 30). Now in its 11th year, the Joggin’ for Frogman 5K race series benefits Travis Manion Foundation (TMF), one of the nation’s leading veteran service organizations. Inspired by U.S. Navy SEALs (Frogmen), the Joggin’ for Frogmen 5K activates communities nationwide to honor the sacrifices of Naval Special Warfare (NSW) service members and to support families of the fallen within the community. The event was created following the Extortion 17 tragedy on Aug. 6, 2011, when 31 U.S. personnel were lost in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan, marking the single largest loss of life for U.S. forces in Operation Enduring Freedom and in the history of NSW. All funds raised through the JFF series benefit surviving families of the NSW community connected to Travis Manion Foundation. TMF’s best-in-class personal development training and experiences allow survivors to find healing and honor their loved ones through service, including opportunities to serve as mentors to youth, forge connections with one another, and experience opportunities for personal growth. The first Joggin' for Frogmen 5K was held in San Diego in 2012. Since then, the event has expanded to shadow race locations across the United States and has incorporated an annual Extortion 17 virtual run for participants nationwide. Each in-person event in the series also includes a Tadpole Trot kids fun run. Registration includes custom finisher’s medals for all participants, chip timing and bibs, custom patch (for rucking participants) and a race t-shirt.

The dance is the culmination of a task-based and improvisatory process with the DISCO RIOT company dancers. This work is accompanied by a digital mixtape which she has assembled during our process and which serves as a dedication to the performers. Marty Dorado is excited to present a new dance work in honor of his 10 year anniversary of moving to San Diego. His piece highlights the stories of four characters who use their past experiences to inspire their future paths in life. A dance of survival, friendship, and transformation, Hourglass Alchemy by Zaquia Mahler Salinas explores the questions: what are our inherited traumas, inherited triumphs, and inherited magic? The duet, performed with Chelsea Zeffiro, is dedicated to Desiree Cuizon. Anna Brown Massey’s newest work brings joyful, riotous fun to this Scottish fever dream of a dance. Massey highlights DISCO RIOT’s gift for musical virtuosity and explosive power to celebrate kinship and determination. Come for the art, stay for the party! Visit Disco Riot on Facebook+ Instagram
