The Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) organized the 8th Annual 24 at 29 Endurance Run and Relay Race "Semper Fit," a challenging and grueling 24-hour endurance event held at the Marine Corps Base in Twentynine Palms, California. As a way to enhance the race experience and create a memorable finish line for the runners, MCCS decided to use an inflatable custom arch as the start/finish line. The inflatable arch served as a visible marker and its vibrant red & white coloring added an element of excitement and festivity to the event. The arch's branding elements also help create a sense of unity and camaraderie among the runners and spectators. Inflatable arches are easy to set up and take down, making them a practical choice for any race event that requires quick and efficient set-up and break-down times.
"This year’s event was the highest attended in some time, and the [inflatable] astronaut, front and center on our Portico, was a great visible draw from all over the area."
