About the event

This race is part of a 5 race series called 'The Freedom Run Series'. You can register for all 5 races at the following link: https://runsignup.com/Race/OH/Kent/TheFreedomRunSeries for a single fee of $100!  You'll save $25 and qualify for the Freedom Run Series Medal.  You will also be entered into a chance to win one of two $100 drawings at each race in the series (you must be present at the drawing at each race to win).  Please go to the Freedom Run Series link above for further details.

Lest we Forget!  Run to the Wall was established to memorialize all military service personnel, past, present, and future.  Past participants told us, we have a challenging “hilly” course but that they look forward to coming back year after year.  No matter what your athletic ability we are confident that you will be able to complete the course.  Many use our 10K course to prepare for the Akron Marathon.  Run to the Wall is a race that brings the community together to commemorate all service members especially those who gave the most precious gift, one that we can never repay ~ their life.

TOGETHER we can make a difference and truly honor, remember, and celebrate all of our military service members. 

The back of your T-shirt may be personalized with the name of the special military hero in your life for a $10 donation. 

All proceeds from Run to the Wall are used to continue to build and maintain the Ohio Veterans' Memorial Park, which is run and maintained by an ALL volunteer staff.

NO REFUNDS and/or REIMBURSEMENTS.
