Miles for Meals 5K Run & Walk
Benefitting Food for the Journey Project
Join us for the Miles for Meals 5K Run & Walk—a fun, family-friendly event that supports the mission of Food for the Journey Project (FJP) to serve meals and kindness to those experiencing hunger in Dayton neighborhoods.
The Miles for Meals 5K will take place on the scenic bike path adjacent to Southern Ohio Brewing in Beavercreek. Participants will enjoy an out-and-back route totaling 3.1 miles, perfect for runners, walkers, and families alike. After the race, stick around to enjoy a light brunch provided by FJP and, if you’d like, celebrate your finish with a cold beverage from the brewery!
Proceeds from this event go directly to supporting FJP’s work, which includes providing hundreds of meals each week to individuals and families in need across the Miami Valley.
