Running Wildfire was developed to support the Prineville Hotshot Memorial Run and the Wildland Firefighter Foundation. Running Wildfire’s vision is to provide another avenue for firefighters and runners to support the wildland fire fighting community. By doing this we will keep the memories of those lost alive.

Wildland Firefighters run as part of their job. Firefighters run to maintain the top physical condition that is required of them to do one of the toughest jobs in the world. A wildland firefighter is required to spend arduous hours digging, cutting, sawing, packing and hiking the fire lines.
