Miles for Moffitt

Miles for Moffitt takes place in Tampa, Florida, on November 21, 2026, and raises funds and awareness for cancer research in line with the mission of the Moffitt Cancer Center. The schedule offers several formats: the 10K (6.2 miles) at 6:30 a.m., a 10K + 5K Challenge combining both distances for 9.3 miles, the 5K (3.1 miles) at 8:00 a.m., a 5K walk and stroller wave at 8:20 a.m., and a 1K fun run/walk at 9:00 a.m. The event brings together families, patients, survivors, and corporate teams, with activities ranging from wheelchair races to family walks.

The Challenge is the pick for a runner who wants a real workout: a 10K followed by a 5K about 90 minutes later, so build toward it with a weekly long run of 7 to 8 miles and practice running again on tired legs. The standalone 10K and 5K suit anyone chasing a time, while the walk wave and the 1K keep the morning open to strollers, kids, and first-timers. With a 6:30 a.m. start for the longer formats, an early, light breakfast and good hydration are worthwhile.
