NEW YORK - The Tunnel to Towers 5k Run & Walk kicked off Sunday morning in Brooklyn. 

The event got underway at 9:30 a.m. retracing Firefighter Stephen Siller's final footsteps on 9/11, from the foot of the Battery Tunnel to the Twin Towers. 

The event also honors all the innocent lives we lost that day including first responders and 343 New York City firefighters.
