Run for Recovery

The Run for Recovery is an inspiring event that brings together runners and walkers to honor individuals whose lives have been touched by addiction. Held at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds, this race offers both 5K and 10K options on a scenic course that winds through Glen Park before returning to the starting point. Participants can choose between running or walking as they support Bridge at Urban Mission's recovery program.
The event features professional timing for all runners, ensuring accuracy and fair competition. The first 200 registrants receive commemorative Run for Recovery T-shirts, symbolizing unity and solidarity among those committed to making a difference in the lives of others. As you lace up your shoes and hit the starting line, you'll be part of an uplifting community that raises funds and awareness for recovery initiatives.
The course itself offers runners and walkers breathtaking views of Glen Park's lush greenery and serene landscapes, providing both scenic beauty and emotional support throughout their journey. Whether you're a seasoned runner or someone looking to contribute in a meaningful way, the Run for Recovery is an opportunity to come together and bring hope to those impacted by addiction.
Those who wish to participate but cannot join on race day can still make valuable contributions through the event's fundraising page. Every donation helps support individuals working towards recovery at Bridge at Urban Mission, ensuring that no one faces their journey alone. Join us in celebrating resilience and fostering a community dedicated to healing and hope.
The Run for Recovery is more than just a race; it’s an expression of solidarity and commitment to making positive change in the lives affected by addiction.
