Event Description
"5K for HEROES" is a 5K run/walk/obstacle race donating 100% of the proceeds to the families of fallen heroes. The proceeds will be donated to organizations that support children and families of fallen Law Enforcement, Fire, and Military personnel.
This 5k will feature 4 options:

Our goal is to support as many of these families as possible.
