Honor First Responders at the Tunnel to Tower Foundation's 5K Run/Walk

In memory of Stephen Siller, a 9/11 firefighter who lost his life, Jacksonville will host the second annual Stephen Siller Tunnel to Tower Foundation’s 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, September 2 at the Jacksonville Landing. The run is hosted by the Tunnel to Towers non-profit organization; their mission is to honor and celebrate first responders—fire, police, EMT’s, paramedics—as well as military service heroes who serve, sacrifice and protect us every day.

Event organizer Marc McCorckle will be running in his firefighting gear; he has participated in countless events since 2011, including three 5K events in one weekend!

Registration for the 5k Run/Walk is open to the public. Registered walkers and runners will have the opportunity to create their own profile pages that will feature their personal photos and individual stories. Additionally, participants can compete to raise the most funds and recruit the most friends to their team.

Bozard Ford Lincoln is currently registering participants at their location in St. Augustine, Florida. You can also register by clicking here.
