Save the date! The 2025 Downtown Run Around will be Saturday, June 7th
We are thrilled to be back at the University of Minnesota campus for a fourth year of this scenic, chip-timed 5K course, cheered on by the crowd and the sounds of the Mill City Running race team pep band. Join us in-person for a great event and post-race party that includes custom frosted cookie "medals", Johnny Pops and fruit, a finisher photo area, and more! Bring the kiddos for a free half-mile run. Or, join us virtually and support Mile in My Shoes Members from wherever you are!
8:30AM Kid’s race, 9AM 5K start time

"The Downtown Run Around was my first race, and I couldn't believe all of these people I didn't even know were there to cheer me on. As I neared the finish line, there were all of these people motivating me, supporting me. Then I finished and a stranger handed me a popsicle?! It doesn't get any better than that!" - Resident Member, Team Southside
