Although we run to honor and remember each fallen hero from the current conflicts, we remember every service member from New Hampshire who laid down their life for freedom's cause. Thousands have sacrificed to preserve our way of life. As you give tribute to our New Hampshire heroes, please remember others who have given the ultimate sacrifice throughout history. Regardless of war, conflict, or branch of service, we ultimately run for them all, honoring their service and sacrifice and remembering that they each gave up a future so that we could have ours.

WHAT DOES "GOLD STAR" MEAN?
The term "Gold Star" describes a family member who has lost a loved one in military service. The Gold Star first made an appearance during Word War I after being placed over a service flag's blue star when a service member was killed in combat. The Gold Star signified the family's pride in the loved one's sacrifice rather than the mourning of their personal loss.
