Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk - Virginia Beach, VA

What is a Tunnel To Towers Run & Walk? The Tunnel to Towers Run & Walk Series was created to honor the heroic life and death of Stephen Siller, a New York City firefighter (FDNY) who lost his life on September 11, 2001 after strapping on his gear and running through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel to the Twin Towers. Honor all of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001 and support our first responders and military who make extraordinary sacrifices in the line of duty! For more information on the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation please visit www.t2t.org . This will be our second Virginia Beach 5K and we are excited to bring together the community of Virginia Beach, so rich in its patronage to our service members stationed here, and to honor them alongside our Firefighters, Police Officers, and our first responders.
