Join us in-person or virtually at 9am CDT for the 10th annual Race to Feed Kids in support of Mary’s Meals, an international feeding charity that provides a daily meal to children in their place of education. This isn’t just your average run/walk. Every single race registration will feed one child at Mcheza school in Malawi, Africa for an ENTIRE school year, helping to end hunger and change their story.
Gather with us after the race for family-friendly activities!

New for 2023: 5K Walk (Non-Timed / Donation Only): After having many participants over the years request an untimed option, we've created a "Donation Only" race event for this year. There will be no race registration fee and no bib assigned, and participants can make their donation toward Mcheza Primary School via the "Donate" tab on this website.
Shirts: Participants will have the option to purchase Mary’s meals shirts at a reduced cost during the web registration. Shirts available for purchase include new designs, as well as some of our favorites from the past. Short-Sleeve ($15-$25), Long-Sleeve ($20-$30), and Crew Sweatshirts ($25-$35) will be available.
*This race is coordinated by Heartland for Kids, 501(c)3. "Feeding the world's youth with Mary's Meals."
