9/11 Commemorative 5K Event

The City of Graham presents the fourth annual 9/11 Commemorative 5K Run/Walk Event on Saturday, September 7, 2024. Come dressed in your red, white, and blue for the event! The event will also feature a non-competitive 1-mile run/walk, a Runner Services station located in the fire bays, a Touch A Truck area, games, and music with a DJ. This is a community event and is open to all to participate!

The First Responders Team Cup 5K invites first responders (Fire, Police, EMS, and Military) to register as a team. For participants looking to participate in the 5K run/walk, but wanting a shorter distance, we invite you to register for the Non-Competitive 1-Mile Run/Walk.

Donations will be collected for the Children of Fallen Heroes organization, which provides support and immediate needs for children of First Responders and Military fallen heroes through partnerships and donations. Because of the community’s help, they help make a positive difference in their lives and the surviving spouses.
