About this race
🏃♀️ Virtual 5K for Freedom
Kickoff: January 11 – National Human Trafficking Awareness Day
Join us for a Virtual 5K in support of Guardian Group, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to preventing and disrupting the sex trafficking of women and children across the United States.
Run, walk, or roll—on your own time, from anywhere—while standing up for those who cannot.
Your participation helps fuel Guardian Group’s work to:
Identify and disrupt trafficking networks
Protect vulnerable women and children in our communities
Why January 11 Matters?
National Human Trafficking Awareness Day calls us to take action, not just raise awareness. Every step you take sends a message: exploitation has no place in our world.
