THE SECOND ANNUAL F3 NWIND 5K FOR FAIR HAVEN IS LESS THAN A MONTH AWAY!!

NEW DATE. SAME MISSION. LET’S SHOW UP FOR FAIR HAVEN.

No matter your pace or how you participate, you can help make a difference.

🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET.

25 years later, we remember.

We remember the lives lost.
We remember the families forever changed.
We remember the firefighters, police officers, EMS, military, and everyday Americans who ran toward danger when others were running away.

We remember the courage.
We remember the sacrifice.
We remember the unity that brought Americans together when our country needed it most.

Today, we REMEMBER. We HONOR. We NEVER FORGET.

From the men of F3 NWIND — we honor the fallen heroes and victims of September 11, 2001, and the countless men and women who continued to serve and sacrifice in the years that followed.

🇺🇸 United in remembrance. Strong in brotherhood.

NEVER FORGET.

🇺🇸 HAPPY LABOR DAY FROM F3 NWIND! 🇺🇸

Today we recognize the people who show up, put in the work, and keep this country moving.

To the blue-collar workers, tradesmen, farmers, drivers, teachers, healthcare workers, business owners, professionals, and everyone grinding behind the scenes — THANK YOU.

And to our first responders — police, firefighters, EMTs, dispatchers, and all those who run toward the problem when everyone else is running away — we see you, and we appreciate you. 🚒🚑🚔

Different jobs. Different uniforms. Different tools.

Same mindset: SHOW UP. SERVE. WORK HARD.

That's something we understand at F3.

🇺🇸 Happy Labor Day from F3 NWIND!

WORK. SERVE. LEAD.

F3 NWIND 5K for Fair Haven Update

It is with sincere disappointment that we share that the 2nd Annual F3 NWIND 5k for Fair Haven , scheduled for September 5th, has been postponed.

The extensive damage caused by the August 11th storm has forced the Highland Parks Department to close Wicker Memorial Park indefinitely and cancel all park reservations for the remainder of the year.

We know many of you have already signed up, made plans, committed your time, and supported this event. Our sponsors and vendors have also stepped up to help make this race possible. We are truly sorry that circumstances beyond anyone's control have led us to postpone the event, and we sincerely appreciate everyone's patience, understanding, and continued support.

We are not giving up on this race.

We are actively working with our vendors, the Town of Highland, our sponsors, and race participants to reschedule the event sometime this fall. We hope to have a plan solidified in the coming weeks. Once the details are finalized, we will provide a follow-up announcement and contact registered race participants directly with the new date and location.

Above all, we are incredibly grateful for your support of F3 NWIND and our partner, Fair Haven Center. This event is about more than crossing a finish line. It is about supporting Fair Haven and their mission to support and protect women during some of their most difficult and vulnerable times.

Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and for believing in this cause. We are humbled by the support we have received and remain committed to making this event happen.

We’ll keep moving forward, and we look forward to seeing everyone at the starting line soon.
