Wheeled participants will have a 5 minute head start. After the race, enjoy a community celebration featuring awards, sponsor booths, food, music, and vendor prize giveaways immediately following the ceremony. Run, walk, ride or cheer—every step honors those who served and celebrates the freedom they defended.
