MLK Jr. Freedom Run - Las Vegas
The MLK Jr. Freedom Run is scheduled in Henderson, Nevada, on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The event takes place at Cornerstone Park on Wigwam Parkway and includes in-person and virtual options. It is organized as a smaller, wave-based group run with a cap per wave; waves are filled on a first-come, first-served basis and a wait list and virtual option are available when waves sell out.
Participants of all paces and ages may run or walk; minors must be accompanied by a guardian. Timing is optional: participants may track time with common running apps and submit results via an online form for posting. The event does not use timing chips.
Swag and finish items are provided. Registered participants receive a running T-shirt shipped within the US, a finisher's medal, a finisher's towel or giveaway, a digital training pack, online results and a certificate of completion, and an invitation to local run clubs. Technical running shirts are available as a paid upgrade. Race bibs are provided on race day; mailed shirts are sent the week of the event. A virtual run option includes a digital training pack and medal delivery after submission of results. Volunteer opportunities and sponsorship options are part of the event program.
