"Rickover Race to Remember" 5k Run/Walk

Rickover Naval Academy (RNA), in collaboration with Friends of Rickover (FoR) is honored to host its 2nd Rickover Race to Remember on Sunday, September 7, 2025.

We come together to remember 9/11 and to educate our high school cadets about its lasting impact. As part of our 5K run/walk, we will honor our First Responders, Veterans, and active-duty military. Families are encouraged to participate, and runners are invited to dedicate their run to a loved one or individual who has inspired them through their service or sacrifice.
