# Rewritten Description

Lace up to celebrate the brave service members from New Hampshire who've made the ultimate sacrifice since 9/11, while showing heartfelt appreciation to the Gold Star families who've lost loved ones. As you run each mile through Newport, you'll encounter posters of our fallen heroes with their families present, giving you the meaningful opportunity to salute, shake hands, and express gratitude for their incredible sacrifice. This community event honors not just recent heroes, but all New Hampshire service members throughout history who gave their lives defending our freedom.
