Important Update: Run 4 Our Vets Location and Event Change

Due to damage to the course in Punta Gorda and permitting restrictions at the new location, the Run 4 Our Vets event will now be a 5K-only race. The event date remains the same on November 10, 2024 and will take place at South County Regional Park in Punta Gorda.

We appreciate your understanding as we make these adjustments to ensure a smooth and enjoyable event for all participants. All other event details, including registration perks and our dedication to honoring veterans, remain unchanged.

 

ALL race proceeds benefit Bert's Salute to America and Girls on the Run SWFL.
