Scott Sterrett Memorial Races

The Scott Sterrett Memorial Races take place in Cedar Falls, Iowa. This event serves as a tribute to a local reserve officer and marathon enthusiast who passed away after a battle with pancreatic cancer. The races aim to strengthen the relationship between the local community and those who serve it. A portion of the proceeds from the registrations is allocated toward a scholarship fund for local high school seniors intending to pursue careers as first responders.

Participants can choose from several distance options that utilize local routes:

  • 5K through the local area.
  • 10K road race.
  • Half Marathon (13.1 miles) featuring scenic views.
  • Half Marathon Relay for teams.

The event features specific amenities such as "Hero Bibs" and race-specific merchandise. Registration options are available both with and without event shirts. The venue is located at 200 State Street in Cedar Falls, providing a central point for the various distance categories. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
