Miles for a Match 5K
Miles for a Match 5K is a community running event held in San Marcos, Texas, on August 22, 2026. The event is organized by the Texas State University chapter of Mu Epsilon Delta in collaboration with Gift of Life. It takes place at 206 N C M Allen Pkwy and includes on-site activities throughout the morning.
The program features local vendors, live music, and family-friendly activities for both children and adults. Gift of Life will host a table where participants can complete a cheek swab to register as potential bone marrow and stem cell donors to support patients with blood cancers.
Participants may run, jog, or walk the 5K course, which is described as a 3.1 mile route. Registration opens March 10, 2026 and closes August 22, 2026. The listed registration fee is $50. A portion of the event proceeds will support Gift of Life’s work to grow the bone marrow registry and help patients find donor matches.
