Tunnel to Towers: 5K run returns this Sunday, closing these streets in Manhattan and Brooklyn | amNewYork

The event retraces the final steps of Siller, who was off duty on the morning of Sept. 11 when he grabbed his gear and attempted to reach the Twin Towers. Stopped at the entrance of the then-Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, Siller abandoned his vehicle and ran through the tunnel on foot toward Lower Manhattan. He died in the World Trade Center collapse.
