Tajour's Story

"My favorite part about the Mentoring Matter 5k was seeing everyone's participation in the event. Seeing the youth and even people my age run for the event and have fun doing it excites me. It's also great to see more people my same skin tone participating in these events as well."

What Makes Our Race Different?

Inclusive & Unique

Unlike other 5Ks, our event specifically engages first-time runners and youth from under-resourced communities, promoting fitness where access is limited.

Youth Focus

Our race not only builds physical health but also boosts academic performance—active youth are 20% more likely to succeed academically.

Community-Centered

We address local health disparities in Springfield while providing critical resources like over 300 backpacks for students.

Holistic Approach

We combine fitness, education, and mentorship, creating a unique 5K that drives both personal and community-wide growth.
