In January of 2015, the Olathe Police Department’s Officer Michael Kern, radio number 704, passed away from a fatal heart attack while preparing for a Presidential escort.  In his memory, the annual 704 Blue Run was born as a tribute to his service and all Olathe Officers that have been tragically lost.

Unfortunately, 2018 saw the unexpected passing of Olathe Police Department Sgt. David Williams. He too will always be remembered for his service and forever a member of this tribute run.

Participants of this great trail run will be chip-timed, receive a performance style t-shirt, and have access to post-race results onsite or via email.

The run is hosted by the Olathe Police Foundation with the purpose of raising funds to establish college scholarships for Olathe Police Department families.
