Please plan to join us for the 6th Annual running of the 9/11 Run to Remember 5K, held in solemn remembrance of the VERY SPECIAL 25th Anniversary of the events and tragedy of September 11th attacks. On Saturday morning, September 12th, 2026, the streets of Downtown Cartersville, GA will once again become a place of reflection, unity, and gratitude. This year marks 25 years since that fateful morning that forever changed our nation. The “9/11 Run to Remember” 5K stands as a tribute to the herculean courage and selfless sacrifice of the first responders who answered the call without hesitation, as well as to the lives lost and the families forever impacted.

Produced in conjunction with the Cartersville Fire Department and the Cartersville Police Department, this meaningful community event brings together runners, walkers, families, and supporters of all ages to honor the legacy of bravery that emerged from unimaginable tragedy. Participants will experience a powerful pre-race program and presentation of the colors by the Cartersville Fire Department Honor Guard, a moving tribute that sets the tone for a morning of remembrance and respect.

Proceeds from the race go to benefit the Georgia Firefighters Burn Foundation
