My most favorite race is the Bataan Memorial Death March (March 25th 2015) I am participating in this race since 2002. It was been mentioned in Runners World and other magazines. It is conducted in memory of the original march that took place during WWII. Civilians race next to members of the military. A very challenging but also heartwarming event.
