Step into the City Mission Steps for Sustainability 5K, an inspiring journey that combines fitness with philanthropy. This annual race not only offers runners the chance to improve their physical well-being but also empowers them to contribute positively to their community by supporting those in need. The event takes place at a time when the city is bustling yet serene, welcoming participants early on a crisp morning at 9AM sharp. As you stride along the scenic route, every step you take helps provide essential resources such as food, shelter, clothing, and life-changing opportunities to men, women, and children who rely on the City Mission's services daily. For those looking to make an impact beyond their participation, there are additional ways to contribute through donations or by becoming a sponsor. Visit the Fundraising Page for more details if you wish to support without running, while businesses interested in sponsoring can explore opportunities detailed on the Sponsorship Page. Race day offers special perks like race shirts guaranteed for early registrants who sign up before September 1st. After this date, t-shirts will be available on a first-come-first-served basis, so don’t miss out! To top it off, awards are presented to the top three male and female finishers in each age group, celebrating their achievements with recognition for hard work and dedication. For any inquiries or assistance regarding registration, sponsorship, or general information about the event, feel free to contact Angie at race@citymission.com or by phone at 518-346-2275 x 306. Join us in making a difference this year! Participating in the City Mission Steps for Sustainability 5K is more than just running; it's about joining forces to build sustainable lives and communities together.
