The 9/11 Heroes Run is a community event held at the Navy Yard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This event brings together local residents, veterans, active-duty military, and first responders to honor the individuals related to the events of September 11 and those who have served since. The courses are open to individuals and families across various fitness levels.
Participants can choose from several event categories:
