Overview
- The 24th annual run and walk followed the approximately 3.5-mile course through the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel to a finish at West and Murray streets.
- Organizers filled roughly 30,000 participant spots for the tribute, which is held each year on the last Sunday of September.
- The race began at 9:30 a.m., with a post-finish barbecue and concert offered to participants on Vesey Street.
- The NYC Department of Transportation and NYPD implemented extensive street closures across Red Hook, the tunnel approaches, and Lower Manhattan.
- Proceeds support Tunnel to Towers programs that pay off mortgages for families of fallen first responders and Gold Star families and build smart homes for catastrophically injured veterans.
