2 fun run events in Miami, Florida

The Miccosukee Tribe of Florida presents GLADES RUNNER races in the Everglades on March 14, 2026. Runners begin and finish at the Miccosukee Village, next to Shark Valley at Tamiami Station FL. This is an event for everyone! Distance options include a "fun run" of 5 kilometers, a 16.5 mile race including the complete Shark Valley loop and a 50-kilometer ultramarathon. All distances incorporate the iconic Shark Valley loop and are run on pavement. Join the Tribe for this very unique and special event on March 14, 2026--the 2nd Annual "Glades Runner Ultra".

Get ready to race at FOTA’s 2026 Wild Transplant Adventure Fun Run/Walk on Saturday, May 2nd at Zoo Miami.

How does it work? You can join us in the morning at Zoo Miami for a 2-mile fun race through the park before it opens to the public and celebrate National Donate Life Month in our private event field. We’ll have your t-shirt and medal on race day, alongside refreshments, photo booth, music and games. Plus, your in-person registration includes access to Zoo Miami admission for the day!

Or, you may choose to walk anywhere (on a treadmill, around your neighborhood or any course of your choice) on that Saturday to join us from afar. We will send your race t-shirt and medal, plus you can download a personalized bib, so you’ve got your transplant swag before and after your race.

Registration is $40…or FREE! Participants can fundraise for special prizes, and if you raise $100 in support from friends/family, we automatically refund your registration and you walk/run for FREE!

Let's stay connected through FOTA’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/florgantransplant.org) and using hashtag, #FOTARuns. Let’s get active and social together, so lace up your sneakers and join the movement!
