The Patriots? Run is an annual event held to commemorate the tragic events of September 11th 2001. With this event we remember, not only those victims who were lost, but also those soldiers, police, firefighters and others who served this country both on that day and every day thereafter. In this way we honor all the people who work to insure that this tragedy never repeats itself.
This is a unique event designed by the committee, running community, sponsors and others. It is a 9 hour and 11 minute run/walk that begins at noon. Participants can be either solo or teams. You can join us at noon and stay the entire time or join us at any time during the event. You can run as much as you wish. Some people join us at the start, leave for a while and come back later. The flexibility is there to let you design your own event. As a soloist you can turn the run into an ultra run.
Our new location is Two Trails Park, 1000 N. Ridgeview, Olathe, KS. The course is the outer path around the park that measures just shy of 3/4 mile (exact distance is 3845 feet, which the results program will calcute to give actual mileage). There is a covered picnic area and playgrounds.
DIRECTIONS:
From I-35 take the Santa Fe exit West to Ridgeview. On Ridgeview go North past Kansas City Road. The park is on the East side of the street.
