American Heroes Run

American Heroes Run takes place in Longmont, Colorado, on a flat, fast loop course of about 1.05 miles. The event features multiple distances, including a 100-mile race (with a 30-hour cutoff), a 24-hour option, marathon, half-marathon, 9.11-mile, and 5K, plus shorter time-limited runs. The atmosphere emphasizes patriotism and remembrance of 9/11, with no politics involved.

Runners enjoy a fully stocked aid station near the start/finish, and overnight participants can order hot foods to be ready after each lap. Finishers receive a unique event coin, and 100-mile finishers earn a belt buckle. Virtual participants receive a shirt, certificate, and award.
