From the Organizer
Join us for the Omaha Runs with Purpose 5K, hosted by Roadrunners and benefiting The Tend Food Pantry.
This community 5K is about more than running — it’s about moving with purpose. Every step helps support The Tend Food Pantry in South Omaha, which provides food assistance to families in our community.
The race will take place in North Omaha, bringing together runners, walkers, families, local businesses, and community members for a morning of movement, connection, and giving back.
Whether you are an experienced runner, a casual walker, or simply someone who wants to support a meaningful cause, this event is for you. Come run local, give back, and be part of something that brings Omaha together.
Proceeds from the event will help support The Tend Food Pantry and its mission to serve families in need.
Run with purpose. Every step makes an impact.
Run your race!
