The Tekau's Heart Memorial 5K Run/1 Mile Walk is a USATF certified event held in Oxon Hill, Maryland, at 192 MGM National Ave near the M-NCPPC Police Substation. This race honors the memory of Tekau Rasayon, a high school senior who passed away from a heart condition while running. The event includes a 5K run, a 1-mile walk, and virtual options for both distances.

It aims to raise awareness about heart conditions in teens and young adults. Proceeds support a memorial scholarship for local high school seniors, heart health programs, and awareness initiatives. The course is mapped along the Woodrow Wilson Bridge Trail, providing a scenic and meaningful setting for participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
