Description
Special Forces Foundation is proud to announce the Annual Memorial Day Run & March. Be a part of the LARGEST food donation event in Colorado!
In-Person Event: Saturday, May 17, 2025 at America the Beautiful Park
If you unable to participate in-person please contact shannon@doneanddone.events
The Memorial Day Run & March invites civilians, Veterans, and uniformed Military to challenge themselves in friendly competition while helping feed homeless Veterans. We have three category events to choose from 5K Run/Ruck, 10K Run/Ruck, 30K Ruck March, and a &k for Sartor.
Fill your rucksacks or backpacks with 25 pounds of nonperishable foods and set off on a 5, 10, or 30K route. When finished, empty your bags and help us raise food to feed Colorado's homeless Veterans. If you're at the in-person event, we will take the food from you at the end.
Proceeds from your registration (and donations!) go directly to helping Special Forces Foundation. We encourage you to share this page and get friends and family involved to support the cause! Thank you on behalf of Special Forces Foundation.
