Pick Up the Pace 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run

Start 2027 by Picking Up the Pace for Girls! Kick off the new year with purpose at the Pick Up the Pace 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run, benefiting Pace Jacksonville and Pace Clay. Runners, walkers, families, businesses and community supporters are invited to come together for a morning of movement, connection and impact. Every step helps Pace provide girls with the academic support, counseling and life skills they need to recognize their strengths, achieve their goals and build brighter futures. Whether you run the 5K, enjoy the 1 Mile Fun Run or gather a team to participate together, you’ll be helping girls in our community move toward a stronger future. Run it. Walk it. Build a team.
