Celebrating 10 years of the Red Shoe 5k
Originally called “Kaps for Kids,” more than 20 years ago this event began as a walk hosted by an alumni family. Then, 10 years ago, a running component was added and the Red Shoe 5k became our signature event. It has continued to grow ever since! While there have been different names and different locations, it always has the same goal at its heart.
While this year may look different, the purpose is the same – to give our community a way to come together (virtually), show support for, and make a positive impact on the families served by RMHCDC. Please join us for our 10th anniversary and biggest year yet!
You walk or run, and we’ll provide the fun.
Once you register, watch your email for links to your Virtual Goodie Bag, playlists, color-your-own mile markers, and more. We’ll also have polls, games, and other ways to win prizes on our Instagram and Facebook pages.
