MT Hearts Memorial 5K
The MT Hearts Memorial 5K is an inaugural community running and walking event held at Citrus High School in Inverness, Florida. The event features a 5K run, a 1 mile walk, and a free kids fun run. It offers both in-person and virtual participation; virtual registrants will receive a mailed T-shirt, bib, and finisher medal after the event.
All participants receive a finisher medal, an event T-shirt, and a commemorative bib. Postrace food and drinks are provided. Awards include overall male and female, overall masters (age 40 and over) male and female, plus medals awarded three deep in five year age groups for ages 15 through 85 and up. Separate medal age groups are listed for kids: 7 and under, 8 to 9, 10 to 12, and 13 to 14.
Entry fees vary by age category and registration date; listed rates include discounted preevent prices and higher day of race prices for the 5K run and 1 mile walk. The event is organized to raise funds for charitable programs: 100 percent of proceeds are distributed evenly to two named beneficiaries, with half supporting metastatic breast cancer work and half supporting a local elementary school. The event is managed by a local race organizer and lists local sponsorship categories and a host hotel near the venue.
Race maps for the 5K course are available and the venue address is 600 W Highland Blvd, Inverness, FL 34452. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
