3rd Annual Heroes Live Forever 5K

On April 1, 2014, Officer Gregg Maloney lost his life in the line of duty. Officer Maloney was a 17 year veteran of the Plymouth Police Department and left behind his wife and 2 sons. The first Heroes Live Forever 5K was created in Officer Maloney’s memory to raise funds for his family. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity and support from the runners, volunteers and sponsors, you all took part in helping a family in need when they truly needed you.

In the 2nd year of the race, the Maloney Family Pay-It-Forward Fund was established to help other local Police, Fire and Military families in need. From the Maloney family: As the boys and I have gone through this ordeal, there is one thought that has constantly crossed my mind; how do families that have suffered a similar loss, or challenge, survive without all of the support we have been fortunate enough to receive? I really feel that helping those whose worlds have been turned upside down is something that the boys and I would like to support.

In addition to the Pay-It-Forward fund, we will continue to honor Officer Maloney and his family by donating a portion of the race proceeds to the Plymouth Police Relief Association as well as establishing a scholarship in his memory at Plymouth South High School to be given to a student going into the field of Criminal Justice.
