The Experience
The Patriots Run was founded in 2002 in the wake of the September 11th terrorist attacks on America. The purpose of this multi-race event is to thank and honor all who serve; our military, fire, police, first responders, and their families. It is a race created by patriots, for patriots, supporting those who daily sacrifice for the freedom and safety we enjoy in our great country. Proceeds from the Patriots Run will provide Folds of Honor scholarships to families of fallen or disabled service members.
