Join us on July 26, 2025 at the 2025 Miles for Meals 5K benefiting Loaves & Fishes! Run or walk a fast and flat 5K course at Basset Creek Park. Prizes will be awarded to the top finishers.
Ask your family and friends to donate as you run for this great cause: feeding every Minnesotan.
Loaves & Fishes is a nonprofit organization serving free, healthy meals where the need is greatest. We serve urban, suburban and rural communities through a variety of meal programs supported by creative food sourcing and food rescue efforts. In 2024, we served over 6.9 million meals, our most ever. All food we serve has been rescued, and last year, we rescued a record 15.3 million pounds of perfectly good food that would have otherwise gone to a landfill.
Miles for Meals 5K is a part of Crystal Frolics 2025. Crystal Frolics is a four-day family-focused celebration of community. Come and enjoy food, fireworks, live entertainment, pickleball tournaments, and so much more. Right now, you can make your own fundraising page for the Miles for Meals 5K. Ask your family, friends, and community members to donate or sponsor your run today -- or make a team with them!
Note: If you are running for your school or for a specific organization, you may not be eligible to accept prizes. Let us know ahead of time if this is your situation so that we can recognize your accomplishments another way.
