Samurai Sprint 5K and Dojo Dash Fun Run

25 years later, we remember the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost, the families forever changed, and the heroes who ran toward danger while others were running away.

We remember the firefighters, police officers, EMS personnel, military members, and ordinary citizens who demonstrated extraordinary courage and sacrifice.

We remember those who gave their lives that day—and those who continue to suffer from the lasting effects of the attacks.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

After some slight technical difficulties, we have officially posted the race pictures from the Samurai Sprint 5K & Dojo Dash Fun Run!

We hope you enjoy them as much as we do. Seeing the smiles, support, and community throughout the day reminds us why this event means so much.

A simple “thank you” truly does not convey our gratitude to everyone who participated, volunteered, sponsored, donated, and supported this event. Because of you, we were able to honor Alden’s legacy and continue supporting the William Alden Elliott Memorial Scholarship.

Thank you all again for making this event so special.
