From the Organizer
Join us in San Diego for the 6th Annual FBE Juneteenth 5K Run/Walk.
Move with purpose. Celebrate freedom. Join us as we run, walk, or roll together in honor of Juneteenth and the generations who fought for liberation.
Together we move to improve our health, honor our ancestors, and strengthen the future of our community.
The FBE Juneteenth 5K is an annual community race hosted by Fit, Black, and Educated, Inc. (FBE).
Juneteenth commemorates June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas and announced that enslaved people were free—more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
Today, Juneteenth is recognized as a commemoration and celebration of family, liberation, heritage, unity, and resilience.
Through movement, the FBE Juneteenth 5K brings our community together to celebrate this important history while promoting health, wellness, and unity.
Participants of all fitness levels are welcome to run, walk, or roll.
