Downtown Run Around 5K for Mile in My Shoes

June 8 @ 9:00 am11:00 am

Join Mile in My Shoes Members and supporters at the most diverse starting line in Minnesota! The annual Downtown Run Around 5K will be held on Saturday, June 8, on the University of Minnesota campus and is the perfect race for serious racers and “fun runners” alike. Bring your family & friends – we invite all levels of run/walkers to join us for a fun and healthy morning on a fast and flat course. All participants receive our signature tri-blend race tee and custom cookie medal! Note: This race is FREE to all BiPOC runners or anyone for whom the registration cost is a barrier to entry.

100% of the proceeds from this event will go directly to Mile in My Shoes, a 501(c)(3) organization. Mile in My Shoes (MiMS) teams of Resident Members (people staying in shelters, reentry centers and recovery programs or folks transitioning from military service) and volunteer Run Mentors have run thousands of miles side by side, completing races from one mile to a marathon(!) in pursuit of our vision: using the power of running to bring together people from diverse backgrounds to build connections, boost wellness, spark social change, and center people traditionally excluded from running spaces.
