9/11 Heroes Run - Baton Rouge

9/11 Heroes Run - Baton Rouge takes place at River Parishes Community College in Gonzales, Louisiana. The event centers on a 5K distance, welcoming runners, walkers, and ruckers of all ages to honor the heroes of September 11 and those who served in the wars that followed. Participants can choose between 5K Run and 5K Ruck, with options for active duty military or first responders.

A standout feature is commemorative gear: a 2025 shirt is included with Run entries and a 2025 ruck patch is included with the Ruck option. The atmosphere is memorial-focused and inclusive, with fundraising and volunteer opportunities available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
