Miles for Michael 5.12K Run/Walk and Children’s Dash
This memorial running event takes place on May 17, 2026 at Charles Towne Landing - Visitor's Center in Charleston, SC. It includes an in-person 5.12K run/walk, a virtual 5.12K option, and a Children's Dash.
- 5.12K run/walk, in-person and virtual
- Children's Dash, distance not specified
Registration opens December 2, 2025 and closes February 20, 2026. Registration fees listed are $35.00 for the 5.12K in-person and virtual entries and $10.00 for the Children's Dash. T-shirt sizing is unisex and participants must register by April 25 to receive their desired shirt size. For virtual participants, T-shirts will be mailed the day after the event; international shipping costs must be covered by the participant through a donation to the fund.
The 5.12K distance was chosen in honor of the honoree's birthday on May 12 and as a nod to a preference for unconventional measurements. The in-person 5.12K is not timed. Children who enter the dash receive a T-shirt and a finishers medal. Dogs are not allowed on the racecourse due to insurance and liability restrictions. All proceeds will be donated to the Michael W Leibowitz Family Fund to support charitable causes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
