From the Organizer
Run For Their Freedom is more than a race—it’s a movement. Join us at the Greenway Pavilion in Cleveland as we come together to bring awareness to human trafficking and stand alongside survivors. Choose your challenge with a 5K run or a 1-mile walk and make every step count.
When you participate, you help shine light into one of the darkest injustices affecting our community. You honor the lives of those who never found freedom, and most importantly, you send a powerful message to survivors: you are seen, you are valued, and you are not alone. Every registration becomes part of something bigger than race day. Gather your friends, lace up your shoes, and be part of creating impact that lasts far beyond the finish line.
Registration pricing: Early bird pricing runs June 17–July 31 at $20 for the 5K and $15 for the 1-mile walk. August 1–September 1 registration is $25 for the 5K and $20 for the walk. September 2–October 17 pricing is $30 for the 5K and $25 for the walk.
Register by September 30 to guarantee your free event t-shirt.
Packet pickup will take place October 16 from 4:00–6:00 PM at Terra Running Company and on race day, October 17, from 5:00–6:15 PM at the Greenway Pavilion. We can’t wait to see you at the starting line.
