From the Organizer
The Run / Walk/Move 5K for Ron is a celebration of the life and legacy of the late Secretary of Commerce Ronald H. Brown who would have turned 85 on August 1, 2026. Walk, or run for 5 kilometers or move for one hour and be part of this movement to change lives. What makes this great is that you can do it anywhere!
Whether you join from the treadmill, your yoga class, your favorite trail, your church or your local school track…when you and thousands of others around the world walk, run, or move- we will collectively make a difference on August 1, 2026 and support the next generation of leaders.
Now more than ever, we need to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity at an education.
