This is your chance to help honor our military and really test yourself in one of the most meaningful races you can run in Western New York.

It's called the KIA Memorial Roadmarch and it's happening this Saturday at Chestnut Ridge Park.

It's a 10k rucksack march through Chesnut Ridge Park in Orchard Park to help raise awareness of the people who have been killed in action while fighting for our country.  But it's more than just a memorial march.  They also raise funds and gather food for food pantries here in Western New York. (Gold Star Mother's food pantry, (40%) Vietnam Veterans of America (40%) & Buffalo State college Milligan's food pantry (20%).)

Yes, you actually carry the non-perishable food with you on your march through the park, then it gets donated after the march is over.

If you're looking for a challenge, this is it!

It's for a good cause and it's a fun challenge?  Yup.
