FAME Fun 5K Run/Walk

Lace up your shoes for the 4th Annual FAME Fun 5K Run/Walk on Sunday, June 14, 2026, at the scenic Boyce Park in Plum, PA. This popular community event offers both a chip-timed 3.1-mile (5K) race for competitive runners and an untimed 1-mile walk perfect for families and casual participants. Starting and finishing at the Boyce Park Four Seasons Lodge, this event promises a supportive atmosphere for all, with race day registration opening at 7:00 AM before the 5K kicks off at 9:00 AM and the 1-mile walk at 9:05 AM. You can expect typical race day conditions to be pleasant, with highs around 82°F and lows around 60°F, and a 22% chance of precipitation.

What truly sets the FAME Fun 5K apart is its impactful mission. Your participation directly supports the Fund for Advancement of Minorities Through Education (FAME), providing critical educational resources and scholarships for African American youth in the Greater Pittsburgh area. Beyond the cause, runners and walkers can look forward to a rewarding experience. All participants will receive a commemorative race T-shirt and a custom finisher's medal, with age group awards recognizing the top 5K performers. Expect an encouraging course with at least one water stop around the 1.5-mile mark, along with post-race food, drinks, and snacks to refuel. The event welcomes strollers, fostering a truly family-friendly environment.
