America’s Run for the Fallen Completing its Coast-to-Coast Run to Arlington

Runners Arrive at Arlington National Cemetery on August 5 for Closing Ceremony

August 3, 2018

On August 5, runners honoring fallen American service members arrive in Arlington, completing their 6,100-mile cross-country run passing through 19 states enroute from Fort Irwin, California to Arlington National Cemetery.  At every mile along the run, runners pause for a short ceremony to call out each name of the soldiers, sailors, airmen, coast guard and marines killed on a different day since the War on Terror began.

“America’s Run for the Fallen” is organized by Honor and Remember, a veteran and Gold Star Family organization that seeks to individually recognize nearly 20,000 Fallen Service Members since the USS Cole (October 2000).

Thousands of Gold Star families and fellow vets have flown, driven, and run from all over the country to attend the ceremonies commemorating specific dates.  The runners, families, and comrades have been joined by communities (and countless high school bands!) all along the route. When this race completes, it will be the largest and longest tribute of this kind ever for fallen service members.
