NEW YEAR. NEW ME 5K RUN (10k + 1-Mile)
A New Year gives us a starting line—and a chance to decide where we go from here. This is where we begin. Walk it. Run it. Find your pace. Whatever your goal, make your move and start 2027 in motion.
The New Year. New Me 5K is a Motion Works invitation to take that first step forward—because one step leads to another. Bring your family, your crew, or simply yourself. The road ahead is yours. Choose what comes next. Momentum matters
Walk it. Run it. Start in Motion.

You will earn your own collectible finisher medal. Our medal honors the years along the old trail that brought us here. YOUR trail then turns toward 2027 and the way ahead. The past is written. What comes next is yours to shape. This is where we begin. Make your move. Choose what comes next.
