True North Events invites you to participate in this truly unique event as we honor our fallen and show our continued love and support to all our police, fire, EMS, active duty military, Veterans and those who served, at the 5th Annual Warriors 4 Warriors 5K to support Team RWB.
Stronger Together is a theme that was born from the physical and emotional separation COVID-19 brought into the lives of so many. Depression, anxiety, and domestic violence all rose throughout the year ensuing the COVID-19 spread. Military and veteran suicide rates rose dramatically. We felt isolated, even from those we were closest to. We faced our own vulnerability and mortality daily. As a new year emerges, we now have the opportunity to reach out and be with others again. Stronger Together is a reminder that alone we may be weak, but together we are strong. Together we are unbroken. Together we can overcome anything. We are Stronger Together.

New this year is a team competition! When registering, you will have the option to be on one of the local Team RWB chapters and entered into the team competition using the Join Team feature on the registration page. This competition is only among Team RWB chapters. All Team RWB chapters have already been loaded into the registration system from a list Team RWB provided us. There is no need to create a new team. Also, the words "Team RWB" are not included in the team name. Instead, search by your city or area name. If you have any issues with this or you forgot to join a team that you wanted, please email us truenorthee@gmail.com. The three categories we have this year for those that complete the virtual 5K and submit times include:
Winning members on each team who had a paid registration will receive a unique competition patch. For those that registered for free and are on a winning team, they will have the option to purchase the competition patch after results have been tallied.
The team competition is a combined effort between the in person 5K in Utah and the virtual 5K participants.
All items for the Virtual 5K will start mailing in late August 2021.
Note: For the purposes of sales tax, Utah is an origin-based state. This means we are responsible for charging the sales tax rate to all virtual events including this one regardless of where you are participating.
The mission of Team Red, White & Blue (Team RWB) is to enrich the lives of America’s veterans by connecting them to their community through physical and social activity.
Every year, more than 250,000 active duty service members transition out of the military, joining the 3.5 million post-9/11 veterans already living in communities nationwide. They face many challenges including isolation, weight gain, lack of purpose, and other health issues.
Team Red, White & Blue is the antidote to the isolation and health challenges they face. They insist that all veterans have the opportunity to reclaim what was most precious about their military service: an unwavering sense of belonging born of challenges that show us what each of us is capable of. Together, they strive to make tomorrow better. Together, they will increase mental and physical health. Together, they will find strength and success.
