Not Just For Runners 5K

The Not Just For Runners event, held at Garcia Bend Park in Sacramento, California, features a 5K run/walk, a 1-mile walk/run, and a health fair aimed at promoting health and community engagement. The courses are out-and-back routes on paved bike and pedestrian trails, accommodating runners, walkers, wheelchair users, and children under 12. The event emphasizes inclusivity and health equity, supporting initiatives like the California Black Health Network.

Although the 2025 in-person event was canceled due to unforeseen circumstances, organizers plan a virtual experience during Sacramento Running Week to encourage wellness and community participation. The event is supported by local sponsors and partners committed to health education and advocacy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
