On August 30, at 10:00 a.m., the traditional patriotic race "I honor soldiers, I run for the Heroes of Ukraine" will start, which began in 2018 and is dedicated to the Day of Remembrance of the fallen Ukrainian Heroes.
In 2025, the movement of remembrance will unite Ukrainians and our friends on all continents - from Ukraine to Canada, from Germany to Peru, from Italy to New Zealand, from Spain to the United States.
Donetsk region has once again actively joined the initiative. More than 3,600 participants from Donetsk Oblast have registered to run the chosen distance (2 km, 5 km or 10 km) with the name of a Hero who died fighting for Ukraine's freedom between 2014 and 2025 on their T-shirt.
Among the registered participants are athletes, military personnel, teachers, students, volunteers, and concerned citizens: all those who want to honor the memory of fallen defenders.
"I honor the soldiers, I run for the Heroes of Ukraine" is first and foremost a symbol of unity and gratitude.
The memory of our heroes is immortal, as is the love for the native land for which they gave their lives.
Donetsk region is running. Ukraine is running. The world is running! Together - for the sake of memory, for the sake of the future.
