American Heroes Run

About the event

The tragic events of 9/11/01 changed our nation forever. Let us not forget our proud history and those who fight everyday to keep us free. Please join us for this special day on this beautiful, flat, fast 1.05-mile loop course. The 100-mile race cutoff is 30 hours. No politics, just patriotism. - David Clark #WeAreSuperman

Every participant will receive a high-quality race shirt, special AHR dogtag, and other goodies. Finishers will receive a unique event coin and finisher award. 100-mile finishers will receive an attractive belt buckle. We will have a fully-stocked aid station near the start/finish. For the overnight races you can custom-order hot food items that will be cooked and ready for you when you complete your next lap! Quesadillas (vegan and non-vegan), potatoes, mashed potatoes, ramen, and more! Bathrooms are also located nearby. Virtual participants will receive a shirt, certificate, and awards. Overseas shipping is extra.
