No matter what part of the country you live or visit, everyone knows of a relative or friend that has been or currently is active in the United States military. Many of these same individuals have been directly affected by tragedies involving these courageous men and women. In September of 2011, my family was no different as we were informed of the tragedy we were about to face. I wanted to do something to honor not only our loved one, but every wounded and fallen warrior fighting to protect those things we take for granted on a daily basis. That is why the 4 Mile Run Of Valor was founded. All proceeds from the 4 Mile Run Of Valor will benefit the Wounded Warrior Project.
The race will be held Saturday, May 17, 2014 at the Murphysboro Lake State Park. Both runners and walkers will be allowed and prizes will be handed out to those who finish in the top 3 of their respected age category. Further information can be found on the Run Of Valor Registration form. The Wounded Warrior Project has approved the event and WWP merchandise will be distributed to our event participants.
Run To Succeed is now accepting sponsorships for the 4 Mile Run Of Valor. Sponsorships are set up on a tier level and further information can be found by clicking here. We at RTS encourage all business owners to consider a sponsorship for this race. Sponsorships can be purchased for as little as $50.00.
If you’re not interested in running/walking in the event, we encourage you to donate to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Show your support by signing up for the race or donating now.
