Indiana
RUN FOR THE
FALLEN

WAYS YOU CAN HELP

We need your presence at one or more Hero Markers near you. One of the most important ways to honor our Indiana fallen military is to be at the Hero Marker when the run team arrives. There will be a Hero Marker placed approx every mile along the 140 mile route. These runners need to be appreciated and encouraged as they are investing 3 days and going a distance of 140 miles in honor of our Indiana Fallen and their families. By visibly showing support it energizes the runners and inspires them to continue knowing that there are others who appreciate the effort, not for themselves but for those who they run for.

Gold Star Families are encouraged to stand by your Hero's Marker, Bring your Honor and Remember personalized Flags, banners, photos, posters, friends, family and co-workers. The runners will stop at your marker and honor you and your loved one. We will post, under your hero's name above, the exact location, day and time the runners will arrive.

Veterans and Patriots we need you! Come out on your own or with your local organization. Community clubs such as Elks, Rotary, Lions, Eagles etc, we need everyone to be a part of making this tribute journey amazing.

Public Safety Officials - We have incorporated our newest Honor and Sacrifice Flag for fallen first responders. If you are in the law enforcement or EMT community please consider joining us and carrying this new tribute in honor of your brethren.

Schools, churches, businesses, corporations, patriotic Americans all, come out in your community and support this effort.
