Veterans Memorial 150 - VM150

Call

Veterans Memorial 150 - VM150 Veterans Memorial 150 will be held annually on Memorial Weekend to benefit a worthy non-profit that Runners or teams can pick their point to start and finish.

The Run:
This event will be a 150 mile run across the state of Michigan over Memorial Weekend. The run will start on the beach at Lake Michigan in Ludington, and end at the Saginaw Bay in Essexville. Leg maps and pace chart are found in the "Route" section of this page. Basic food and drink will be provided at 17 aid stations/relay stops which will be staged approximately every 5-10 miles staffed by volunteers. Pending volunteer drivers, transportation provided back to your vehicle along the route. We envision a group run, but route maps are provided for those that wish to run ahead.

A round of golf can do more than improve your scorecard—it can help change someone's life.

We’re excited to share that our golfer spots are officially FILLED! ⛳ Thank you to everyone who signed up to join us for the Blue Star Service Dogs Golf Outing!

We’re still looking for sponsors to help make this special event a success. Your sponsorship helps raise critical funds that support our mission of transforming shelter dogs into life-changing service dogs for veterans and first responders.

Hey friends. I hope you’ve had a nice summer. I wanted to get the VM on your calendars for next year if you’re interested.

Same format as this year. Will be rerouting through Midland though. I’ll be updating the route documents.

A few of you dropped due to injury before the race this year. If you want in, let me know and I’ll send you a coupon for last years entry fee.

If you want to talk, get in touch.

On August 8, 2026, at our Annual Iron Mike 5K in Armada, Michigan, Guinness World Record holder Billy Spooner will take on an extraordinary pull-up challenge in honor of our nation’s fallen heroes.

Every rep will be a tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice while helping support the families of fallen heroes and the Iron Mike Foundation’s mission of providing educational programs and unique therapies for individuals with special needs.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Billy, for using your incredible talent to make a difference. Your dedication to this mission means so much to our family and our Foundation.

We hope you’ll join us to cheer Billy on, honor our fallen heroes, and be part of this special day.

Please LIKE and SHARE this post so we can spread the word! We hope to see you there! 🇺🇸
