About this Event
The Amazon LEO Warrior Yomp 2026 is a 50-mile, 24-hour endurance challenge held in the Washington, D.C. Metro Area on November 7–8, 2026. Organized by the Allied Forces Foundation (AFF), the event brings together wounded warriors, veterans, active duty service members, and supporters from over a dozen Allied nations to honor resilience, recovery, and international unity.
Registration:
Participants traverse a scenic route through the capital, Arlington, and along the historic C&O Canal, with Bronze (25 miles), Silver (36 miles), and Gold (50 miles) medal stages. Along the way, walkers stop at five embassies, symbolizing global solidarity and shared sacrifice.
Warrior Yomp is more than a physical challenge; it’s a platform for healing, connection, and purpose. The event fosters camaraderie across borders and raises awareness for veteran recovery.
The weekend also includes a Mini Expo and Bib Collection at the Military Women’s Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery on November 6.
Whether walking, volunteering, or cheering from the sidelines, Warrior Yomp invites everyone to take part in a mission that transcends miles, uniting nations in strength, spirit, and service.
