Join Us for the Inaugural Stars and Stripes Honor Run & Walk!
Lace up and take part in an unforgettable morning of movement, meaning, and mission. The Stars and Stripes Honor Run & Walk is more than a 5K—it’s a chance to honor our nation’s heroes, support life-changing journeys for our veterans, and come together as a community with purpose.
Held at Veterans Park on Milwaukee’s lakefront, this scenic and symbolic course welcomes runners, joggers, and walkers of all ages and paces. Proceeds directly support Stars and Stripes Honor Flight, helping send veterans on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Washington, D.C. to be honored for their service.
This is a race you’ll remember—not just for the views or the finish line, but for the impact.
If you’re running in memory of someone, we’re running with you. Participants will have a special opportunity to honor loved ones and heroes as part of the event.
