The 9/11 Memorial & Museum 5K Run/Walk in NYC attracted hundreds of participants aiming to raise around $600,000 for the museum's operational costs. Retreading the routes taken by first responders on September 11, 2001, the event serves as a significant tribute. NYPD officers ensured safety through street closures, while motivational FDNY firefighters supported the runners. This annual event underscores the community's enduring connection to the tragic events and emphasizes the importance of keeping the museum available to all, which draws over 2.5 million visitors annually.
The event went down Sunday, and the goal is to raise around $600,000 to help keep the museum free to the public.
As participants crossed the finish line in front of the 9/11 Museum, they were met with a powerful sight ... a line of FDNY firefighters in red shirts.
