MEMORIAL MINUTES

Concept of Operations
Situation:
Unite in a 25-day virtual challenge designed to honor the 1.3 million Americans who gave their lives in service to this nation over the last 250 years.
From 1 May to Memorial Day (25 May 26), Eagles will log 40 minutes of intentional movement each day with one collective goal to reach 1.3 million total minutes. That’s one minute per service member who’s died in service to our nation in our 250-year history.
Every minute represents a life given to secure life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
The numbers are intentional:
1.3 million Americans lost in service starting with the Revolutionary War
250 years of sacrifice as our nation approaches its 250th birthday
25 days, the length of the challenge, where each day represents a decade of that history and service to our nation
40 minutes per day symbolizing approximately one second for every service member killed in OIF and OEF
Mission:
From 1 - 25 MAY 2026, log 40 minutes of movement each day.
Share your photos in the Team RWB Member App and on social media using #TeamRWB.
Who Are You Moving For?
With every mile logged, every step taken, and every minute earned, we honor the lives of those who gave everything in service to this country. Behind every name is a story. A teammate. A friend. A battle buddy. A family member.
We invite you to share who you’re running for and why their memory matters to you. Tell us their name. Tell us their story. Tell us what this mission means to you.
