 Twenty-three years ago, on September 11, 2001, America was attacked by terrorists. The 9/11 terrorist attacks killed 2,977 people and injured thousands at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. As we honor those we lost, and the heroes that sacrificed their lives to save as many people as possible, we hope to see America come together as it did 23 years ago. Join our Never Forget race and promise to NEVER FORGET what happened that day. 

We will be donating 15% of each registration to <a href="https://tunnel2towers.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Tunnel to Towers Foundation</a>, an amazing organization that honors the sacrifice of firefighter Stephen Siller who laid down his life to save others on September 11, 2001. They also honor our military and first responders who continue to make the supreme sacrifice of life and limb for our country.

Complete your race anytime in September. You choose which distance you will complete: 1M, 5K, 10K, Half Marathon or Marathon. 

Medals and Bibs will ship out September 1st! If you sign up after that they will ship out within 2 to 5 days of signing up.

Most colleges close early applications in 7 weeks. 
Applying early can often be beneficial - higher acceptance rates, more scholarships, consideration for honors college, etc. 
However, applying early can also limit your options financially or rush you to submit a weaker application. 
Join our free workshop led by a certified college counselor to learn whether early applications are the best path for your family. We'll break down the pros and cons so you can make an informed decision.
Parents and students welcome.
