About the Miracle Walk & 5K Run for the Down Syndrome Association of Miami

This is a charity event in Coral Gables that raises money for the Down Syndrome Association of Miami. The funds go toward therapies, education, and family support programs. The course is open to walkers and runners, and the morning draws people who are there to show up for someone they care about, not to chase a time.

Packet pickup is available the week before at Duffy's Tavern in Miami, or you can pick up on race morning. If you are running with a team, your captain may have a separate pickup plan worth confirming ahead of time.

Is the Miracle Walk & 5K Run for the Down Syndrome Association of Miami a good first 5K?

A field of 290 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Miracle Walk & 5K Run for the Down Syndrome Association of Miami?

The 5K winner ran 18:15 while the median finisher took 32:27. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
