- **Event Description**: Join us for meaningful way to celebrate Veterans Day with the Veterans Day 5K, presented by Best Buy Metals, on Sunday, November 8, at Mills River Park. This event is more than a run—it’s a chance to come together as a community to honor our veterans and support the life-changing work of the Veterans Healing Farm.

The 5k starts at 10AM and the Fun Run Loop starts at 9:45AM.  The 5K course follows the family-friendly greenway at Mills River Park, that welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. This is a flat course with surrounding mountain views.

If you’re not up to the 5K, we have an untimed, fun run option that is a ~1/2 mile flat loop. This option is good for kiddo’s or those looking for a shorter distance. The Fun Run Loop includes a finisher medal and a bib. Parents/Guardians are welcome to run or walk along side! There are no awards for the Fun Run Loop.
