Organiser's Description

The Steady Steve 5K on Batesville's Westside honors the legacy of Stephen Raviscioni, who worked tirelessly with his loving wife, Autumn, to establish Our Father's Table food ministry. Stephen had also turned to running for fitness and health in a big way before COVID-19 came along. He was stricken with a severe case and we lost his graceful service to the hungry and poor.

Autumn continues the mission at Our Father's Table, and the Steady Steve 5K will help meet the ongoing needs of so many among us. The nonprofit ministry has distributed sack lunches as a street outreach on Saturdays since 2012 and now serves hot meals two nights a week. Our Father's Table seeks to build nurturing relationships with the hungry and to point them to additional resources in our community for any other needs they may have.

The race will begin and end at the Our Father's Table facility and all proceeds will go to the ministry. (Supporters may fetch a PRINTABLE FLIER, SPONSORSHIP FORM, AND PAPER ENTRY FORM ATTACHED BELOW.) Entrants may make a donation above and beyond the race fee. The online entry fee is $25, plus a small transaction fee, until 6 p.m. Oct. 3. Race-day registration will be $30 from 6:30-7:30 a.m.

The RACE ROUTE (SEE MAP BELOW) runs through Batesville's Westside passing West Elementary School. Entrants registered by Sept. 22 will receive a T-shirt in requested size in their packets, with later entries receiving shirts first-come first-served at packet pickup while supplies last. Awards will be for Top 3 male, Top 3 female in Runner and Walker divisions, and finishers award for all.
