    Why We Run

    Since 2000, the Olin Veterans Association has been dedicated to supporting and honoring the veteran community at Washington University. The OVA Honor Run brings together students, alumni, veterans, military families, and the greater St. Louis community for a morning of remembrance, camaraderie, and purpose. Every step is a tribute to those who served — and those who gave everything.

    The Course

    Both the 5K run and 1-mile memorial walk take place on and around the beautiful Washington University / Olin campus. The course features a flat, fast, and scenic route through one of St. Louis's most iconic campuses. Whether you're chasing a PR or walking in honor of a loved one, there's a place for you at this event.
