Justin Back Be a Hero Run/Walk

Justin Back's Be A Hero 5k

Justin Michael Back was loved by many in his small community of Waynesville, and has been a positive role model during his lifetime and after. Justin was very caring and giving and would take up for those that couldn’t stand up for themselves and never let a fellow student sit alone during lunch. With this in mind, we created a 501c3 non-profit organization called Be A Hero, where we give back to others in local areas of our community and share Justin’s “Hero Qualities” with them.

To help celebrate his life and legacy of giving to back to others, we have held Justin Back’s: Be A Hero 5k Run/Walk to raise money for his Be A Hero Scholarship Fund at Waynesville High School and the Warren County Career Center. This event has been held for the past three years and has been successful.

Please join us in this celebration of his memory, and run or walk at the Be A Hero 5k!
