Honoring Our Heroes 5K

Meridian, United States • 6 Mar 2026

Honoring Our Heroes 5K & 2 Mile Ruck

The event offers several activities: a 5K run, a 5K walk, and a 2-mile ruck. A "T-Shirt Only" option is also available.

This event takes place at Camp Meridale in Meridian, Mississippi, at 1510 Camp Meridale Rd. The event supports a cause related to raising awareness about suicide and PTSD, with proceeds going to an organization that serves military service members, veterans, and their families.

Unlike previous years, the event is not a road run. The course is described as all-terrain, with trails through woods, over hills, and on uneven ground. The venue is a 170-acre property with rolling hills and natural springs. Following the awards ceremony, free refreshments and food are available for participants.
