Blake Mounce Memorial Run 2026
The Blake Mounce Memorial Run is a community sporting event held in Ecru, Mississippi. The race serves as a tribute to Blake Mounce, an individual who was killed in the line of duty while serving in Iraq. Proceeds from the event are directed toward making upgrades and improvements to the local park named in Mounce's memory, a location where he spent time playing sports during his childhood.
The event takes place in the city of Ecru, with the main course traversing through the local streets. Participants can choose between different participation options depending on their location and preference:
- 5K Run/Walk
- Sleep-In
The 5K Run/Walk is the primary physical event held on-site. The Sleep-In option is available for those who wish to support the park and receive an event shirt without participating in the organized race on the scheduled morning. For all registration types, the availability of event shirts is only guaranteed for those who complete their registration before the specified cutoff date of March 20. The event's gathering point and central hub is located at 154 Central Avenue. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
