Ready to honor the heroes who gave it all for our freedom? Join us for "Because of the Brave 5K," a heartwarming event this Memorial Day at the American Village in Montevallo, Alabama. This unique run/walk isn’t a race; it’s a tribute. Grab a flag, provided on race day, and carry it proudly throughout the 5K to remember our fallen servicemen and women. You'll start early at 7:00 AM to make time for the stirring Memorial Day Service at the adjacent Alabama National Cemetery. Complete the looped, flag-lined course at your own pace, then spend the afternoon celebrating freedom at the American Village's festivities. Dedicate your run to a hero, take home a challenge coin instead of a medal, and know your participation supports these hallowed grounds. Sign up by May 1st to secure your spot in this profound acknowledgment of sacrifice – it's about remembrance, honor, and the true price of freedom.
