From the Organizer

Runners and Walkers 
Welcome to join in a 5K Run/Walk through the beautiful communities of Ave Maria!
Run starts at the Town Center:

5068 Annunciation Cir, Ave Maria FL 
Starting time 8:15am

Run with purpose in the Ave Maria Community at the first annual Xavier Randolph Memorial Run — celebrating Xavier Randolph’s life, a passionate runner whose life was tragically cut short. The proceeds from this race will go into the Xavier Randolph Memorial Scholarship at Ave Maria University, the school he was planning to attend, which will provide scholarships for students who exemplify faith and leadership. Organized by Ave Maria Development, the event will feature a complimentary t-shirt* and participation medal for registered runners, and awards spanning age groups, and most funds raised by an individual or team. After the race, we invite everyone to gather at The Bean for a celebratory brunch, then stick around for the award-winning Taste of Ave event that begins at noon in the Town Center. Brunch admission is an add on to the race with the purchase of a wristband. Whether you run, walk, or give through a donation, your participation helps us honor Xavier’s legacy and carry forward the kindness and spirit he shared with everyone.

*t-shirt available to all registered participants signed up before January 22, 2027 at 12:01am

Registration Fees:
Until January 30 - $35
January 31 (Race Day) - $40
