Can I donate rather than register for the run?
Please visit our online registration page and select the "Donation" option in the race registration types. Additionally, those registering to run the race may add additional money in this section to be donated. Just like the race registrations, 100% of all donations received will be provided to the National Law Enforcement Officers' Memorial Fund. Please keep in mind that stand-alone donations are subject to the same terms and conditions and do not include race registration or bib/merchandise.
Is there a separate children's run?
While we did feature a separate kids' race we have discontinued this due to lack of interest. We have however changed our registration to accommodate this. Kids under the age of 14 may participate in the 5K race for a reduced registration fee. We will not be held responsible for your hurt ego if your child finishes the race before you.
Do you offer refunds?
