Event Information
The UPS 5K Benefiting United Way of Miami-Dade takes participants through the beautiful city of Coral Gables and will run on our new scenic course where you'll see sites like Church of the Little Flower and the Biltmore Hotel. The race still starts and ends at the City of Coral Gables Historic City Hall at a festive post-race party across the street from City Hall at the intersection of Le Jeune Road and Miracle Mile.
HURRICANE IRMA UPDATE

Thank you for your patience as we deal with the recovery efforts after Hurricane Irma.

After several meetings and exploring all options, we regretfully announce the cancellation of the 2017 UPS 5K to benefit United Way of Miami-Dade. Coral Gables and neighboring municipalities have set event dates and are unable to accommodate our race this year.

In the last four weeks, our friends at United Way have been hard at work helping with community relief and rebuilding efforts. It’s your support of United Way that allows them to respond in times of crisis, as well as respond to every-day needs. We are happy to share that your race entry fees, less incurred costs, will be donated to Hurricane relief efforts and United Way of Miami-Dade.

We would love for you to enjoy your official race t-shirt. Look for details on where to pickup your shirt in an email from TeamFootWorks.

From UPS, TeamFootWorks and United Way of Miami-Dade, we appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing you at next year’s race.
