Event summary

Get ready for an inspiring day of community and camaraderie at the Inaugural Run for Our Warriors 5K and the Memorial Mile on Saturday, October 18, 2025, in Mission, Hidalgo. This uplifting event is dedicated to honoring the brave men and women of our Armed Forces and First Responder communities who have selflessly served to protect our freedoms. Participants will have the opportunity to run either a 5K or the Memorial Mile, all while supporting the McAllen Guns & Hoses Foundation, which provides essential assistance to local heroes and their families.

Join us for a celebration of strength and unity as we come together to show our warriors that the Rio Grande Valley stands with them! The day will not only feature awards for the top male and female finishers in the 5K but also participant t-shirts, finisher medals, and race-themed bibs. After the race, participants are invited to enjoy a fantastic post-run celebration at The Landmark on Tower, home of the Desmadrito Michelada. Don’t miss this chance to make a difference—lace up your running shoes, show up, and let’s support our heroes together!
