MIA Runway 5K - Miami International Airport
The MIA Runway 5K takes place at Miami International Airport on October 16, 2027. The course uses runway 8L-26R and begins inside the 25,000-square-foot American Airlines maintenance hangar adjacent to the runway. The event is capped at 2,500 participants; the MIA race will not open as a stand-alone registration until June, and guaranteed entry requires registration for the full MIA Runway 5K Series.
All runners receive digital RFID timing with live results and a course split time. Registered participants may opt in to receive text updates with their time as they cross course timing mats; opt-in may take up to 48 hours after registration.
Packet pick-up is at 4640 NW 36th St, Building 890, Miami, FL 33166 with scheduled pick-up on Friday and the morning of the event. Runners receive a bib number, wristband (if picked up Friday), and event t-shirt. Spectators must register, answer security questions, and pick up a wristband for access to designated viewing areas only.
This is a secure airport event with strict screening. Every person must pick up their own packet and present a valid physical ID; TSA does not accept digital or copied IDs. No bags or gear check are allowed. K-9 units and additional security vetting will be in use, and once checked into the hangar there is no re-entry. Awards are given to overall male and female finishers (1st–3rd) and in standard age groups, all determined by chip time. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
