About the Event

This unique and powerful event welcomes runners, ruckers, and walkers of all ages and fitness levels to come together in remembrance and unity. Whether you choose to run for a personal goal, ruck in tribute carrying weight in honor of a fallen hero, or walk alongside family and friends, every step taken helps carry forward the legacy of our fallen heroes.

Proceeds from the event benefit SHE's the V.E.T., a nonprofit organization committed to empowering and supporting female veterans through advocacy, resources, and community connection. By participating, you not only honor those we have lost, but also stand in support of women who have served and continue to serve.

Lace up. Shoulder the weight. Walk with intention. Run to Remember — because freedom is never free.

About Owensboro

Learn more about the host city, Owensboro.

Owensboro is a town on the banks of the Ohio River in Kentucky's Western Coal Fields. It bills itself as the Barbecue Capital of the World and has had some interesting figures call it home over the years, such as Beulah Annan, whose story inspired the play and movie Chicago; Florence Henderson, aka Carol Brady of The Brady Bunch; NASCAR great Darrell Waltrip ; and Johnny Depp. On a darker note, it was also the site of the last public hanging in the United States, the subject being an African American, in 1936.
