I was able to attend two different types of remembrances yesterday on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. The first was the
9/11 Heroes run in Dallas, TX. The Travis Manion Foundation orgainized 5K races all over the country with a goal to never forget the sacrifices of all of the Heroes of September 11th — veteran, first responder, and civilian. It was announced at the Dallas event that over 700 people had signed up for the run with
542 runners being timed.

Runners enjoy snacks and water after the race.
This was in downtown Dallas.
The second event was a 9/11 memorial service at the Veterans Memorial at Ben Gill Park in Terrell.
