Runners from all over West Central Missouri and Eastern Kansas participate in this event to help enhance the lives of the veterans who live at the Missouri Veterans Home in Warrensburg.
This event offers a 5K and 10K run that is USATF certified and uses a professional timing company to document running times. Participants are allowed to walk the race as well and is family-friendly.
Medals are presented to the top three finishers in each age category for the run by the veterans who live at the home. They love being able to give back to those who are instrumental in making the final chapters of their lives better.
Proceeds from this event go towards programs that improve the quality of life for our veterans. This includes everything from receiving prize money at every bingo game held, enjoying an ice cold beer or glass of wine at our weekly happy hour, listening to the sound of live music, tasting amazing food like steak, shrimp and lobster and going on outings all over Missouri.
