CORE RUN
TEAM

Serious runners only please

We are assembling a small group (20 maximum), of active or former military personnel or dedicated athletes to comprise a core team of runners committed to a 3-day 140 mile tribute run from Cincinnati to Sunbury. The run has a specific timetable for each marker throughout each day. Runners need to be flexible, willing to run on any given day and when needed. RAIN OR SHINE.

Runners will run approx. 1 mile for every Ohio fallen military hero who died while serving during the current war on terror, stopping to salute and give tribute by name at every Hero Marker, briefly greeting family, friends and comrades who may be waiting nearby. Stopping no longer than 90 seconds each.

Each runner must be physically capable of a consistent 8-9 minute mile for 2 mile legs. Core teams will regularly rotate over the 3-day period. We are not looking for quantity of runners but a solid team dedicated to the remembrance of those who gave their lives and their families. This route will be grueling at times because the trail winds through many hilly areas as we in Ohio. A specific pace must be maintained in order to timely greet waiting families.

If you are interested in becoming a part of our core team or be a drop-in runner contact us at, Ohio@RunfortheFallen.org.

I heard about the run from Randy Haddox. I participated in Fl Run for the Fallen in 2023. I was born in Sumter SC on Shaw AFB. I am a retired Air Force Security Forces member from the 125th Fighter Wing in Jax Fl. This event is important to me because it acknowledges our fallen heroes and their families. As far as I know I do not have any food allergies and I do not have any dietary restrictions.

I heard about the run by the leader of our running team. I did 13 years AD then switched to AGR in the Indiana national guard. Multiple deployments. This is important to me as a memorial to the fallen, comaraderie, and public awareness.

Run for the Fallen is important to me because it is an incredible opportunity to honor the memory of our fallen brothers and sisters in arms and pay respects to their family members, while simultaneously getting to know an incredible group of people and doing something that I love. I am currently an active duty Air Force Civil Engineer and a lifelong distance runner. I have lived lived all over the world during my Air Force career, but I am originally from Indiana and I am currently stationed in Georgia. INRFTF 2023 will be my third RFTF event.

I wanted to participate in this event to support my close friends whom are active-duty military, and to remember those who have fallen. Being born and raised in Ohio, this specific event is especially important to me, serving as a way to honor those who have any tie to the great state of Ohio. I've watched my friends participate in previous events in other states, so I look forward to joining them for this event.
