Lace up your shoes for the Step Up to 5K, an inspiring and inclusive event taking place on Saturday, August 1, 2026, in the charming city of Frankenmuth, Michigan. This 5K run, walk, or roll welcomes participants of all abilities to Heritage Park, where the course offers a fast and flat road experience with scenic views along the Cass River trails. Starting promptly at 9:00 AM, with packet pickup beginning at 8:00 AM, runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 82F and lows near 61F, and only a 13% chance of precipitation, making for pleasant running weather.

More than just a race, the 3rd Annual Step Up to 5K, hosted by Bremer Prosthetics, fosters a supportive and uplifting community atmosphere. What truly sets this event apart is its dedication to promoting access to mobility for all; proceeds directly benefit the "So Every Body Can Move" initiative, advocating for equitable insurance coverage for prosthetic and orthotic care. Participants, whether seasoned athletes, individuals with prosthetics, families, or first-timers, will receive a finisher medal and a stylish 5K t-shirt, and even have a chance to win exciting prizes like a running blade or shoes in a raffle. This inclusive event celebrates movement and inspires confidence, ensuring everyone can experience the joy of crossing the finish line together.
