About the Event
Boston's Run to Remember draws thousands of runners each year through the city's historic streets to pay tribute to fallen first responders and military heroes — police officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, and others who gave their lives in service to the public. The event features a scenic course starting near the Massachusetts Fallen Heroes Memorial, a moving Memorial Mile, tributes to first responders in uniform, and a deep commitment to community and remembrance.
As key beneficiaries and partners, Massachusetts Fallen Heroes and InnoVets participate in this annual event to raise awareness and vital funds for their programs supporting Gold Star families and Veterans. Runners, spectators, and community members come together on Memorial Day weekend to celebrate service, sacrifice, and resilience — bridging the military and first-responder communities through a shared expression of gratitude.
Whether you're lacing up for the half-marathon, the 5-mile run, or joining as a supporter, this partnership embodies the spirit of Honor. Support. Empower. — ensuring that the sacrifices of the fallen are never forgotten and that veterans and their families receive the opportunities and care they deserve.
