9/11 Heroes Run - Denver, Colorado
The 9/11 Heroes Run in Denver takes place on September 13, 2026 at Great Lawn Park, 101 Yosemite St., Denver, CO 80230. The event brings together runners, ruckers, walkers, volunteers, and families.
Event types and distances include:
- 5K run
- 5K ruck
- 1 mile run or walk
The run honors the heroes of 9/11 and those who have served since. It aims to activate and unite communities and to support local veterans, active duty service members, first responders, and families of the fallen. Some event descriptions note that entries are open to individuals and families of all fitness levels.
The event organizer partners with GORUCK to offer rucking divisions at each run. Rucking is described as a sport based on special forces training in which participants walk or run while carrying weighted rucksacks. Participants registered in the GORUCK division receive that year’s exclusive TMF GORUCK patch.
Volunteer opportunities are listed as part of the event program. Multiple entry categories appear for the 5K distance, including an honor bib category and rucker and standard run options. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
