Event summary

Get ready for an exciting day of running and community spirit at the BTC Summer Social Run, taking place on Saturday, August 16, 2025, at Trim Tab Brewery in Birmingham, Jefferson. This year, we're shaking things up after 10 fantastic years of the Crisis Center's Just a Call Away 5K! Choose your challenge from a variety of distances: kick things off with a fun 1-3 mile run starting at 7 AM, tackle the 5-8 mile course at 6:30 AM, or push your limits with the ambitious 12-mile run at 6 AM.

Not only will you enjoy a great run, but there will also be a lively post-run social featuring delicious drinks, snacks, and even a Watermelon Eating Contest! All registered runners will receive a drink ticket, refreshing iced coffee from Punch Love, and a chance to win fabulous prizes through a raffle with local businesses. Plus, don't miss the opportunity to visit The Total Joints recovery tent for personalized physical therapy services. If you can't join us in person, you can still support the Crisis Center by completing a run on your own time. Join us for a day of fitness, fun, and community connection!
