Miles for Mamas 2026

JOIN US for the 3rd Annual Miles for Mamas 5K!

Celebrate the grand finale of Black Maternal Health Week 2026 in downtown Jackson! The first 150 to register will receive a free shirt. This isn’t just a race—it’s a movement. Miles for Mamas brings our community together to raise awareness, promote wellness, and advocate for Black mamas and babies across Mississippi. Every step we take is a step toward stronger support systems, healthier outcomes, and a brighter future for Black families.

Lace up, bring your friends and family, and move with purpose. Together, we’ll honor the resilience of Black motherhood, lift up the work of local advocates, and make our voices heard. Join us for joy, community, and action—let’s make every mile count!
