BFM 5K on the Runway and Fun Run
October 5 @ 7:00 am – 10:00 am
On October 5, 2024, the Mobile Airport Authority Foundation invites participants to join the BFM5K on the Runway, a unique race held on the airport’s runway (18/36). Open to runners and walkers alike, this event promises family fun with free kids’ activities, food trucks, vendors, and music.
Proceeds will support the Mobile Airport Authority Foundation, which promotes charitable, educational, and scientific initiatives in the local community.
Participants who pre-register by September 27 are guaranteed a t-shirt on race day, while late registrants will receive shirts as supplies last.
Awards will be given to the top male and female overall, masters, grandmasters, and senior grandmasters. The top three in each age group will also be recognized: 9 and under, 10-14, 15-19, and continuing in five-year increments up to 75-99.
All fun run finishers will receive a ribbon.
Packet pickup is available on Friday, October 4, at Fleet Foot (Mobile location) from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., or on race day between 7 a.m. and 7:45 a.m.
Jogging strollers are welcome but should start behind the runners to avoid congestion. Children riding in strollers can participate for free unless they want a t-shirt, which requires registration.
