On September 11th, our community united at the Mission43 9/11 Miles of Remembrance 5K Run. Together, we honored the 25th anniversary of that tragic day. We remembered the lives lost, the military members who answered the call during the GWOT, and the resilience that continues to unite us as Americans. 🇺🇸 From first steps on the course to cheers at the finish line, the spirit of remembrance and community was felt at every turn. Whether you ran, walked, rucked, volunteered, or showed up in support, you helped make this event unique and truly unforgettable. Thank you for being part of a powerful day of unity, reflection, and remembrance. As we move forward, let’s continue to honor the legacy of 9/11 by living with purpose. 🎥 Watch the highlights from the 2026 Mission43 9/11 Miles of Remembrance 5K Run. @city_of_boise @boisepolicedepartment @boisefire @boiseparksandrecreation
