Rad Racing Company proudly presents... the 1st Annual Kingwood Memorial Day Hero Salute!!

Every Memoridal Day we meet at the Town Center Park in Kingwood to honor those who gave it all for our freedoms by completing/competing in one of two Hero Races: MURPH / LOREDO, or a Half-Marathon / 5K... NEW ADDITION Kids Mini-Salute (short mini hero race).

**POST-RACE will end with a Kids and Winners Tug-of-War Competition!!**

So, before you fire-up those grills and put on your swim suit, lace-up your kicks and come along side us to raise funds for our awesome Heros/Families and push yourself to a new level of courage.

They did it for us... we can do it for them!

See you on the course!
