Event overview

Race Against Human Trafficking is scheduled for May 17, 2026, at Sunland Park Racetrack & Casino, Futurity Drive, Sunland Park, New Mexico. The event is powered by the nonprofit Plant A Seed. It includes in-person and virtual participation and operates as a fundraiser with a goal of $50,000 and $0 raised so far.

Race details and registration

The event offers multiple entry options:

  • 5K
  • 1 mile fun run
  • Virtual 5K

Registration uses tiered pricing that changes by period; example total fees shown include amounts such as $41.24 (early/now) and $46.83 (standard). There is no refund on race entry fees. Race fees may be transferred to other events if transfers are available and a transfer fee is paid. The organizer recommends purchasing race insurance during registration.

All participants will be assigned a bib number. Bibs must be worn on the front of clothing, not folded, so timing equipment can read the number; keeping the bib after the race is allowed. Using another person’s bib will lead to disqualification and a ban from future Plant A Seed events for a minimum of two years.

Fundraising and sponsorship

The event supports fundraising, including team categories for Community, Corporation, and Schools. Several sponsor levels are listed with set prices, for example Platinum at $5,586.82, Gold at $2,794.49, Silver at $1,119.09, Bronze at $560.62, and lower supporter and donor levels. A promoter program offers $2 for each registration secured via a unique promoter code. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
