Canton Run Ruck 5K – Canton, OH 2026

CANTON RUCK RUN 5K Saturday, November 7, 2026 | Plain Township Memorial Park Year Two. Bigger Mission. Deeper Impact. The Canton RUCK RUN 5K is more than a race — it’s a community-driven movement built to honor service, support local veterans, and bring people together with purpose. Whether you ruck, run, or walk, every step you take helps strengthen the lives of those who served our country and the organizations that support them right here in our community. In our inaugural year, this event sold out in just 100 days, raised $4,000 for local veterans’ service organizations, and rallied volunteers to adopt 30 local veterans’ families during the holidays — filling Christmas tree tags and collecting food and toys for the SAM Center. Year Two is about building on that momentum. Our goal for 2026 is to double participation, expand sponsorship support, and honor even more veterans along the course — and we invite you to be part of building what comes next.
