Join the greater local running community for an exciting morning as we run with and for the Members of Mile in My Shoes! The Downtown Run Around 5K will be held on Saturday, June 7,
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, in-person or virtually. Participants receive our signature tri-blend race tee and post-race treats! Note: Mile in My Shoes offers free race entry to runners/walkers with lived
experience of homelessness, incarceration, military service, or addiction; in the BIPOC community; and those with disabilities (contact dra5k@mileinmyshoes.mn for more info).
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) 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.
