About the Run For Recovery
The course runs through Crandon Park, moving past a garden area and along wooded pathways before opening up beside Biscayne Bay near the finish. The terrain is smooth and runnable throughout. Shorter-distance runners complete the loop once; longer-distance runners cover it twice, so the scenery comes around again. The park setting keeps things quiet for most of the route.
The race is organized by the Donnie Baumann Foundation and benefits addiction recovery awareness, so the crowd at the finish tends to include people who are there for reasons beyond the running. Awards go to top finishers by age group, and there is a raffle with a prize basket on site after the run.

The Run For Recovery has been held every year since at least 2025. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
