Ruck 4 Freedom is an honorary Ruck where the community comes together with our Active Duty Military, Veterans and First Responders to do something uncomfortable to show our Armed Forces the gratitude we have for our freedom. Based on a military tradition, participants will have the option to wear a weighted backpack and participate in a 5K, or 10K Ruck Walk. For those that don't want to wear the ruck you can sign up to run or walk the 5K or 10K.

Established in 2010, The Nun Run is the annual fundraising event benefiting Our Lady of Solitude Monastery and the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration. Whether you are a seasoned runner, an enthusiastic walker, or simply looking for a fun morning with family and friends, there is something for everyone with a 10K Run, 5K Run/Walk, and 1-Mile Walk. Your participation helps support the Sisters’ contemplative life of prayer. We are deeply grateful for your support and look forward to seeing you at the Nun Run!
