From the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis and other sites, the Annapolis Striders sponsor marathons and other events, including the annual Annapolis 10-mile Run (to be held next on August 26, 2007). The Annual Governor's Bay Bridge Run (10k) crosses the Chesapeake Bay Bridge from the Eastern Shore to Sandy Point State Park on the Western Shore each May.
