The MIA Runway 5K is a distinctive race offering a single 5 km distance run entirely on the active runway of Miami International Airport. As part of a broader multi-airport series across Miami-Dade County, it provides runners with rare access to aviation spaces while supporting the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. The event blends a flat, fast course with a strong community and charitable focus, welcoming both seasoned athletes and casual participants. Each race in the series is held on a different date and at a different airport, making every installment a unique experience. Though chip-timed, the emphasis remains on participation, awareness, and the thrill of running where planes usually take off.
