The LCpl Noah Lippeatt 3:16 Challenge is modeled after the United States Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test, combining strength and endurance through 3 core challenges, push ups, sit ups, and planks, while running 3.16 miles. The challenge is designed for 3.16 miles to represent John 3:16, a core belief LCpl Noah Lippeatt carried and shared with others throughout his life. All proceeds from this event will go towards the Noah Lippeatt Foundation, which raises money for Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS), care packages, as well as uplifting activities for the Marines Stationed with Guard Company. This is all in honor of LCpl Noah Lippeatt, who passed on June 16, 2024. You will receive a specially designed race T-shirt and a race challenge coin if registered by March 16, 2026. Top 3 finishers in the competitive divisions (male and female) will receive a custom challenge coin.

Corwin-Nixon Park, Mason, OH

Canaan Joseph Foundation is a non-profit organization with a goal of helping families with children diagnosed with Congenital Heart Disease. Every 15 minutes a child born is being diagnosed with a congenital heart disease, the # 1 birth defect in children. On average, 40,000 children born are diagnosed with CHD. With the size of a walnut, many newborns undergo open-heart surgeries in the first few days of their life. It is a world-changing and heart-wrenching journey the loved ones of the child must face. There is no cure for it, only a temporary fix. This means these children go numerous heart surgeries during their lifetime. Many do not make it beyond their first year. Needless to say, one of the hardest battles the loved ones fight along with their little heart warrior. The proceeds from this fundraiser will directly benefit the inpatient families and research in the Cardiac Unit at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.

Why We Run & Walk

This isn't just a 5k; it's a chance to move together for something bigger than us. Every stride, every mile, every smile helps supports organizations like Ekal Vidyalaya, Adopt A Class and IACC that are making a difference in our communities.

Ekal Vidyalaya Foundation

Ekal Vidyalaya works to bring education to children in rural and tribal areas of India through a unique one-teacher school model. These schools provide basic education, digital literacy, and life skills to children in remote villages where access to education is limited. By supporting Ekal, we help empower communities through education and opportunity.

Adopt A Class Foundation

Adopt A Class parters with local schools to support teachers and students by providing funding for classroom resources, educational programs, mentorship opportunities. Their work helps strengthen local classrooms and ensures students have the tools they need to succeed.

Every registration and donation helps support these important initiatives and creates lasting impact both locally and globally.

Whether you're running for a personal best or walking to enjoy the day, your steps make an impact.

Parkinson’s Steady Strides 5K

Dedicated to the physical, mental, emotional and social needs of those living with Parkinson’s disease in the Greater Dayton/Cincinnati metroplex, Parkinson Support & Wellness exists to help those with PD learn about the disease, which empowers individuals to take control and make connections with local resources like support and exercise groups.

Steady Strides, a timed 5K race and walk brings people together to raise funds for our mission to serve the local Parkinson community. These funds go directly toward financial grants made to local exercise and therapy organizations and to essential educational programs like PD-EDU.

Our big day isn't just a 5k; it's a joyful gathering of our community and a demonstration of the impact we can make when we work together. Free food from some of our area’s iconic brands, musical entertainment and a Basket Raffle extravaganza will be found in the Wetterer’s Way concourse adjacent to the Start/Finish line.

Fundraising Teams

Friends and family teams are the core that makes Steady Strides a financial success and a truly communal gathering. Joined by a common connection to Parkinson Disease, these groups come together to assure that the support services so vital to a full and active life are available to their loved ones. Teams take on their own personalities and make sure to include fun as a focus of the day. And they can get pretty competitive when it comes to number of participants and funds raised.

Support for the teams frequently ranges beyond immediate, even extended, families and circle of friends. Teams solicit sponsors from their communities and across their social media groups as well. This raises awareness and grows financial contributions.

Team captains are supported by the Steady Strides Race Committee and will be contacted by the committee to assist in recruiting.

Packet Pick-Up

Registration will be available at packet pickup and also on race day.
