About the race
The third annual Run for Recovery takes place on October 23, 2027 at Crandon Park – North Beach / Nature Center in Key Biscayne, Florida. The event offers in-person and virtual options and benefits The Donnie Baumann Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on reducing stigma around addiction and helping people access treatment and recovery resources.
Distances offered include:
- 5K (3.1 miles)
- 10K (6.2 miles)
- Kids Dash (100 yard)
- Virtual Run (3.1 miles)
The 5K follows a single-loop course through Crandon Park; the 10K completes the loop twice. Courses run through garden areas, wooded pathways, and scenic stretches near Biscayne Bay. The 5K and 10K will be professionally measured, marked, and chip-timed. Water stations and volunteers will be positioned along the course.
Race day activities include finisher medals, race shirts, awards for top overall male and female 5K and 10K finishers, a Kids Dash prize, raffle prizes, music, and family-friendly activities. A new Run for Recovery Milestone Club recognizes participants based on the total number of annual events completed: three races earns Legacy Runner, five earns Champion of Hope, and ten earns Recovery Runs Deep Hall of Fame. Virtual participation counts toward milestone totals; overall race winner prizes are reserved for in-person participants.
Designated parking is available near the Nature Center; parking details and maps will be provided to registered participants. Volunteer and sponsorship opportunities are available to support the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
