    Join us on Saturday October 28th at the Ed Austin Regional Park.  Both the 5K Fun Run and the 1 Mile Walk/Run will be chip timed, and funds raised will go towards enabling and supporting community development efforts of the African Union of Florida (AUF). Additional funds raised will support the startup non-profit based in both Jacksonville, Florida and in Togo, West Africa, Amandine Glory Foundation, in its efforts to empower orphan youths to be unstoppable in West Africa, Togo. 

    All participants will get to taste the delicious ethnic breakfast provided by the Togolese, Kenyan, and Tanzanian connected community in Jacksonville. All finishers will receive a hand-crafted African Print Tote bag, made in West Africa Togo, and shipped specifically for this event, in partnership with the African print clothing company, Jamila Awou. Additional bags and merchandise are purchasable on race day.

For the love of all that is good and moisture wicking...

Though we try to be accurate and on top of things... Race details can change when we aren't lookin. And once in a while we simply make a mistake.
