The Cause

Students in Western Jamaica pursuing tertiary education can look forward to financial assistance towards their studies. This news comes with the announcement of the MoBay City Run, a new charity road race event staged with the aim to create a fund that will provide a mechanism via which the students can seek assistance towards the financing of their education. The fund will provide assistance for students attending UWI and UTECH Western Campuses, Sam Sharpe Teachers College and Montego Bay Community College.

Join the Women Of Color Empowerment Institute mentees as we host the inaugural MIND Your Health: Mental Health Awareness 5K Walk/Run in an effort to raise awareness about mental health issues in the African American community. According to the Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health, African Americans are 20% more likely to experience serious mental health issues than the general population. African Americans are also more likely to experience certain factors that increase the risk for developing a mental condition such as homelessness and exposure to violence. Help us as we shed light on these issues. We invite you to walk or run with us this year as we take on Mental Illness one stride at a time.

Update!

We regret to inform you that due to the significant impact of Hurricane Irma here in Islamorada, we must postpone the Islamorada Half Marathon, 10K & Beach N’ Beer Mile to February 3rd & 4th, 2018. 

Following Hurricane Irma, we believed that the original dates of December 9th & 10th would still work for our event given the three month window of time for clean up efforts in the Keys. However, despite the immediate progress and resiliency from our residents and businesses, there is still much to do. Therefore, after recent evaluations with the local authorities we have come to the conclusion that a postponement is necessary.
Please know that the Village of Islamorada as well as the rest of the Florida Keys still very much looks forward to hosting our event and encourages all to attend our new dates. As tourism is the driving force behind the Keys economy, it is more important than ever to visit our beautiful paradise. We just ask for a little more time to clean up and get our businesses ready.

Release your inner superhero: join hundreds of runners/walkers at a fun, hero-themed 5K hosted by the KID Auxiliary and presented by Ultimate Software. Register at KIDHero5K.org.
