This 4.2-mile run/walk is not just a race; it’s a heartfelt tribute to a true patriot who embodied love and support for his country, friends, and family. As we lace up our running shoes, we celebrate Chris’s memory and his commitment to causes he deeply cared about, including the annual Pat’s Run honoring Pat Tillman. Participants can look forward to an uplifting atmosphere filled with camaraderie, community spirit, and the shared goal of making a positive impact. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Friends of Fusion Foundation, supporting organizations that were important to Chris. Don’t miss this chance to honor a remarkable individual while enjoying a day of fitness and fellowship!
Organiser's Description
WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A PATRIOT?
ACCORDING TO WEBSTER IT IS ONE WHO LOVES AND SUPPORTS HIS OR HER COUNTRY.
BUT WE WOULD LIKE TO ADD A LITTLE MORE TO THAT DEFINITION. A PATRIOT IS ALSO SOMEONE WHO LOVES AND SUPPORTS HIS FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
THAT IS WHO CHRIS PEPE WAS AND WHAT HE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AS...A PATRIOT.
JOIN US FOR OUR ANNUAL 4.2 MILER IN HONOR OF CAPTAIN CHRISTOPHER S. PEPE US AIR FORCE.
CHRIS WAS A HUGE SUPPORTER OF PAT'S RUN IN HONOR OF PAT TILLMAN. CHRIS AND HIS FRIENDS WOULD GO OUT TO ARIZONA EVERY YEAR TO RUN AND SUPPORT THE GREAT CAUSE. WE THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY APPROPRIATE TO HAVE A 4.2 MILE RUN/WALK.
PROCEEDS WILL BENEFIT THE FRIENDS OF FUSION FOUNDATION, WHICH WILL SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS THAT CHRIS CARED DEEPLY ABOUT.
