The Revived Soldiers Ukraine team joined more than 10,000 participants at the 20th annual Soldier Field 10 Mile Run in Chicago, an event held each year ahead of Memorial Day to honor veterans and fallen soldiers.

For several years, Ukrainian veterans have taken part in the race, using sport as a way to commemorate those who gave their lives and to represent Ukraine on an international stage.

This year’s team delivered a strong performance, running together in tribute to the fallen defenders of Ukraine and their fight for freedom.

The initiative was supported by several partners, including the Veterans Dozen Foundation.

By participating in races like the Soldier Field 10 Mile Run, Ukrainian veterans not only honor memory — they also demonstrate resilience, unity, and recovery in action.
