After registering for the annual 9/11 Memorial 5K Run/Walk, participants can start fundraising for a chance to win prizes.
Set up a page as an individual or team and share the link with family and friends to fundraise through April 23. The 5K Run/Walk is April 26.
The highest fundraiser will earn a weekend stay at the Conrad New York Hotel. The second highest receives a year-long membership to Crunch gym and the third highest is awarded with a 10-class SoulCycle pass.
Official contest rules are available on our website. All proceeds support the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. Participants in the contest must be at least 18 years old as of March 26, 2015.
