9/11 Heroes Run - Merchantville

The 9/11 Heroes Run - Merchantville takes place in the Camden area of New Jersey on September 12, 2027, with a 5K (3.1 miles), a 5K Ruck and a 1-mile walk, all starting at 9:11 a.m.

The 9/11 Heroes Run was created in 2007 by the family of First Lieutenant Travis Manion (USMC) as a local event in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. It has since grown into a global series with more than 90 locations and over 60,000 participants each year. The event honors heroes and raises awareness, with proceeds going to the Travis Manion Foundation, whose mission is to support veterans and the families of fallen heroes. In some cities, part of the proceeds also goes to local nonprofits with similar missions.
