Race Information
Join Mile in My Shoes (MiMS) for their signature 5K race at the State Fairgrounds!
The Run More, Judge Less 5K (formerly the Downtown Run Around) is more than a race — it’s a gathering rooted in belonging. Hosted by Mile in My Shoes, this inclusive community run is built on the belief that the transformative power of running should be accessible to everyone — especially those who have been historically excluded from traditional running spaces. People of all backgrounds, paces, and lived experiences are invited to come together and move side by side.
