Run Like A Freedom Fighter

elevationweb / July 19 2019

This year’s Freedom Fighter 5K brought out East Texas’ most passionate patriots on America’s birthday to raise funds for Boot Campaign. The Tyler, TX running community came out in full-force in a parade of red, white and blue to start the holiday celebrating those who defend the freedoms we get to enjoy on 4th of July. 

“When the idea came about to hold this race on Independence Day, there was never a question as to who would be supported by this race,” said Meredith Bryans, General Manager of iTri365 and race organizer. “Boot Campaign was born right here in East Texas, so it was a natural fit and the obvious choice. We’re honored to partner with them to give back to the military community who gives so much to us.” 

So, if you are in East Texas, save the date and lace up your running shoes for the 3rd Annual Freedom Fighter 5K on July 4, 2020!
