Curve Conversations - Honor and Remember Run

What is the true cost of service, and how do we ensure our fallen heroes are never forgotten? In this powerful episode of Curve Conversations, host Ruby sits down with Ryan Menke (Founder) and Eric Evitts (Marine Corps Veteran) to discuss the history, heart, and mission behind the 6th Annual Honor and Remember Run. What started six years ago as a spark of inspiration after Ryan swam the Hudson River for homeless veterans has blossomed into a massive community tradition. This year—marking both the 25th anniversary of 9/11 and the 250th birthday of America—the run returns to the beautiful Cool Springs property in Velpen, Indiana. Ryan and Eric share the emotional weight military families carry, the deep symbolism behind the hand-sewn Honor & Remember (red) and Honor & Sacrifice (blue) flags, and how this year's proceeds will directly back the Huntingburg and Jasper Police Departments. Whether you are a hardcore runner or just want to walk and show your support, this episode is a beautiful reminder of what community and gratitude look like in action.
