From big races to Saturday morning group runs—find virtual events and connect with the local endurance sports community.
The fun includes -
Great Swag - designer shirt & custom medal
Chip-timing with live results and awards
Free photos
Delicious donut waiting at the finish line
Plenty of fun!
Awesome SWAG, ridiculously cool finisher medal, awards, vendors (as we said before, we are growing and always looking to add more vendors please email [email protected] to inquire about becoming a Bodies partner!), and AFTER PARTY! We work hard to create fun courses to run by partnering with local parks. This allows us to minimize our impact on the local community, from residents to businesses and even police. We do things a little differently so we can tailor our races to everyone that wants to come :) Whether you are an avid runner or just starting, you belong at Bodies Race Company!
Grab your friends and family, you are not going to want to miss this one!
Can't make the race? No problem! We offer a virtual race option where you can run anywhere, at any time, and still earn the fun swag!
The weather is nice again- did you miss our run this year?
Due to the extreme cold and unrest during the Saint Paul Winter Carnival's annual Fire and Ice Run, many participants were unable to register and attend. In light of this, we are excited to announce a Virtual Run option!

Run More, Judge Less 5K & 1-Mile
A Mile in My Shoes Community Run
Thursday, June 11 • 6:00–9:00 PM | Minnesota State Fairgrounds
Join Mile in My Shoes (MiMS) for our signature 5K race now with a new name and at an exciting new location - the State Fairgrounds!
The Run More, Judge Less 5K (formerly the Downtown Run Around) is more than a race — it’s a gathering rooted in belonging. Hosted by Mile in My Shoes, this inclusive community run is built on the belief that the transformative power of running should be accessible to everyone — especially those who have been historically excluded from traditional running spaces. We invite people of all backgrounds, paces, and lived experiences to come together and move side by side.
New for 2026, we’re excited to offer both a 5K and a 1-mile distance, in partnership with Midsummer Mile, creating more accessible entry points into movement and community. Held at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds on a summer evening, this is less about the finish line and more about what happens when people move together without judgment.
Join us in person for the run and a post-race party with Kemps chocolate milk and recovery drinks, custom cookie medals, Jonny Pops, fruit, a finisher photo area, and more. Kids can join a free quarter-mile run.
You can also join virtually and support Mile in My Shoes members from anywhere.
No pressure. No labels. Just people, moving together.
More about Mile in My Shoes
At Mile in My Shoes, we view running as a tool for both personal and collective transformation. By centering people and spaces historically excluded by the running community, our teams use movement as a catalyst for social justice. By bringing together people from diverse backgrounds, our Resident Members and Run Mentors not only find common ground but learn from and reach out to one another for support. As we transform ourselves, we transform one another, and we transform our communities.
