Pat's Run

Pat Tillman's friends and family created Pat's Run as a way to celebrate Pat's passionate legacy while raising awareness and funding for the Pat Tillman Foundation. Perry Edinger, Pat's friend and former head trainer for Arizona State University, initiated and developed the concept of a 4.2 mile run/walk around Arizona State with a finish on the 42-yard line of Sun Devil Stadium (#42 was Pat's number while a Sun Devil). Perry wanted the event to be something physical, outdoors, and open to all saying, "With Pat's Run, people are motivated to exercise and do something positive for themselves, while honoring Pat's memory, sharing their stories and ultimately being an inspiration to others."

The 3rd annual Pat's Run in Tempe drew a record 13,000 participants from all 50 states in 2007. The 2nd annual Pat's Run in San Jose had over 5,000 participants in 2007. We hope you will join us for an inspiring and fun morning in 2008.

This event benefits the Pat Tillman Foundation. To find out more about the Foundation and how you can get involved, please visit our website: www.pattillmanfoundation.org.
