Veterans Day Freedom Run 5K/10K/13.1 NEW JERSEY
About the race
Celebrate this Veterans Day with our annual Freedom Run. Choose the 5K, 10K, or Half-Marathon, whether you are running for a personal best or walking with friends and family.
You can raise funds for a charity of your choice (optional), and 100% of the net funds raised will go towards your cause.
This is a smaller, private group run with a capped field per wave, so you are never just a bib number. All paces and ages are welcome (under 18 with a guardian).
Swag bag contents
- Running T-shirt (shipped to your address, US only)
- Finisher's medal
- Virtual training run (emailed a month before your run)
- Online results and certificate of completion
- Invitation to join a local running club
Timing
Timing is optional. Track your own time via Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, or similar, then submit it through our online form to get posted, or ask a coordinator to time you.
No timing chips are used.
Packet pickup and shipping
Packet pickup is not needed. Your swag ships to your door. Double-check your full US mailing address, including apartment number, when you register, as your shirt is sent there. Race bibs are handed out on race day.
Shirt arrival
Your shirt arrives at your mailing address the week of your race.
Shipping may not arrive in time, so your shirt could arrive after race day. You are welcome to wear whatever you like and run with us anyway.
Final participant info
We will send final participant info by the Wednesday before race day, with all the details and course maps.
Wave times
Reserve your wave using your confirmation number after you have registered.

Running late? Jump in when you arrive. Our coordinators stay on-site for 3 hours after the first wave. Times may change depending on seasons, so check your participant info email.
Virtual run option
Prefer to run on your own time? Our Virtual Run includes a digital training pack. Run whenever and wherever, with any tracking device you like (optional), then send your results to [email protected] to claim your medal.
