Organiser's Description
JOIN US FOR FIVE MILES 4 MAMA, A VIRTUAL FUNDRAISING RUN AND WALK IN SUPPORT OF OUR "MOVING MOUNTAINS FOR MAMA" CAMPAIGN!
Whether you're a seasoned runner, an occasional walker, or simply someone who wants to show up for a good cause, we invite you to participate. This is more than a race. It is an opportunity to turn miles into meaningful support for our Mama, Lisa, as she navigates her ovarian cancer journey.
The five-mile distance is intentional. It gives our event its own identity and serves as a reminder that every journey is made one step at a time. Whether you run, jog, or walk, every mile represents love, every step represents hope, and every contribution makes a difference.
HOW IT WORKS
Five Miles 4 Mama is a virtual event, which means you can participate from wherever you are! There is no designated starting line, physical gathering location, or requirement to complete the distance alongside other participants.
1. REGISTER AND PARTICIPATE
Sign up to participate and make your contribution to the campaign. Invite friends, family members, coworkers, and others to join you in supporting Mama!
2. CHOOSE YOUR ROUTE
Select a safe and convenient location to complete your five miles. Your route can be through your neighborhood, a local park, a walking trail, a track, or even on a treadmill. The choice is yours!
3. COMPLETE YOUR FIVE MILES
Run, jog, or walk five miles at your own pace. You do not have to complete all five miles in one session. You are welcome to break up the distance into multiple walks or runs throughout the participation period.
4. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
Use your favorite fitness app, smartwatch, GPS tracker, or treadmill display to track your distance. Sharing your progress or proof of completion is entirely optional. We encourage you to celebrate your accomplishment in whatever way feels meaningful to you.
5. SHARE THE LOVE
Take a picture, share your experience, and encourage others to participate! Invite friends and family to contribute to the campaign and help us spread the word. Every registration, donation, and shared message helps extend our reach and strengthen the circle of support surrounding Mama.
THE MILES 4 MAMA CHALLENGE
We invite every participant to dedicate their five miles to someone or something meaningful. Each mile can represent a person, a memory, a prayer, or a reason to keep moving forward.
You might dedicate a mile to someone you love, honor someone who has battled cancer, celebrate a cancer survivor, remember someone whose life was touched by cancer, or dedicate all five miles to Mama and the strength she continues to demonstrate throughout this journey.
Whatever your dedication, we encourage you to share its meaning with us. Together, we can make every mile a reminder that no one should have to navigate a cancer journey alone.
EVENT DETAILS

PARTICIPATION DEADLINE: November 30, 2026
DISTANCE: Five miles (approximately 8 kilometers)
ACTIVITIES: Running, jogging, or walking

WHY WE RUN
Our goal is to raise funds to help cover some of Mama's essential living expenses and medical expenses incurred during this time.

Every mile brings us together around a shared purpose. Whether you complete all five miles, make a donation, dedicate a mile, or encourage someone else to participate, you are helping us move mountains for Mama.
