The run is not a competitive race, but a show of respect for\u00a0the fallen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is by no means a competition, but rather an esprit de corps to honor our fallen heroes,\u201d said Army Master Sgt. Matt Hayes, a senior military instructor at UM.<\/p>\n<p>All runners will be asked to stay behind the cadets, who will be carrying the American and various military flags, but community members may join in the run at any time behind during the cadre. The run will cover an estimated 2-mile route. From the Lyceum, runners will head down University Avenue and turn left on South Lamar Boulevard. Runners will also circle the Oxford Square and head back up Lamar to finish at the Grove Stage.<\/p>\n<p>After the run, all members of the public are invited\u00a0to listen to a guest speaker at the Grove stage.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact Hayes at <a href=\"mailto:cmhayes@olemiss.edu\">cmhayes@olemiss.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday is the anniversary of the 9\/11 terrorist attacks on the United States, and the Ole Miss community can join ROTC cadets as they carry the nation&#8217;s colors through campus and downtown Oxford during a memorial run honoring those who were killed, as well as the first responders who rushed in to help the victims<a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/web20.olemiss.edu\/news\/wordpress\/ole-miss-rotc-cadets-to-host-911-memorial-run\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Read the story &#x2026;<\/a><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42,"featured_media":39065,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,137,221,899],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.0 -
