The Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run
The Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run is a community athletics event held in Lafayette, Louisiana. The event features multiple participation options starting and finishing at the Fleet Feet Geaux Run Store on Harding Street. The proceeds from the event benefit The Hub Lafayette Urban Ministries, an organization focused on community restoration.
The event offers several distinct distance options:
- 5K Run/Walk
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- 1 Mile & 5K Run/Walk (combined option)
- Sleep In Supporter (virtual participation)
Participants in the 5K compete across various age groups, starting from ages 1-12 and continuing up to 80+. Awards are presented to the top three overall male and female finishers, as well as the top two finishers in each age category. The 1 Mile Fun Run recognizes the first and second place overall male and female finishers.
Registration includes a commemorative t-shirt for those who complete their entry by the guaranteed size deadline in mid-January. Packet pickup is organized at the Fleet Feet Geaux Run Store the day before the event and at the race site on the morning of the run.
The event is open to participants of all ages, with specific registration tiers for children and youth in the fun run. The organizers operate a no-refund policy, treating registration fees as donations to the beneficiary ministry if a participant is unable to attend.
