9/11 Hero Run

The 9/11 Hero Run in Wartburg, Tennessee is a 5K non-timed race designed to honor local first responders, veterans, the National Guard, 911 operators, and their families. Participants pick up a wristband bearing the name of one of the 2977 victims, along with a white T-shirt and sunglasses, at Tanner's Historic Cafe, 506 Court Street. Proceeds go to local first responders.

The event emphasizes remembrance and community support rather than competition, with no awards. The site does not specify a course. The race is scheduled for Saturday, September 13, 2025. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
