Market Street Mission 5K Race for Recovery

Thu July 4, 2024 Central Park of Morris County, Parsippany-Troy Hills, NJ 07950 US

XX Miles for the Mission Challenge

Yes, your 5K is going to be awesome! But are you looking for a bigger challenge? A challenge we all take on together. How many miles can you log in the one month before the BIG 5K? A 3.1 mile training run? How about a 50K (31 miles) over 30 days? As a community let's log 2,000 total miles is support of recovery!

Because our community is so great, we upped our goal to 2,000 miles from 1,000 miles!

Thank you to Columbia Bank Foundation for sponsoring the first 1,000 miles at $1 per mile and an anonymous donor who sponsored our next 400 miles at $1 per mile. This means our miles are going even further to change lives for men in recovery at Market Street Mission!  

Recovery comes in all shapes and sizes...

  • recovery from addiction like the men in the Life Change Recovery Program
  • recovery from homelessness and hunger like those served by the Market Street Mission
  • recovery from our global pandemic
  • recovery from each of our personal challenges
  • and recovery from a challenging workout!

Recovery doesn't come easy and neither do these miles! Will you join Team Market Street in achieving our community goal of 2,000 miles as we all stride towards a better tomorrow?

Take on an additional challenge and turn your miles into dollars! Create a fundraising page and ask your friends, family, and coworkers to support your challenge with a donation. Each of us can submit a mileage goal for the month when entering our first effort. Your supporters can track your progress in the results list. Donations of any size are welcome or you can request a per mile contribution at the end of the one month challenge (or based on your goal)! Click here to start a fundraiser! 

Here's a "How To" for adding YOUR Miles for the Mission and having them count towards our 2,000 Mile goal!

  • Between Saturday June 6th and Sunday July 5th, run or walk as many times and as many miles as you can for Market Street Mission.
    • (Even though we have always been a running event, you can even add your bike or swim miles! More of a workout video or weight lifting type? Each 20 minutes counts as a mile!)
  • Click here to Add Your Miles and on the next screen click on the red "Submit Virtual Results" button.
  • Use the Participant Lookup feature to locate your results portal and click on the red "Log Activities" button.
    • If you are logged in, you will be able to immediately proceed.
    • If you are not logged in, you will be prompted to verify your identity with either your email or last 4 of your phone #. 
  • Distance is the most important thing to enter, but you can also include your time for each activity and will see an overall time for all miles logged and an average pace (time is optional). You can also add comments for each activity. Comments are NOT publicly displayed and are just for you. 
  • Add your goal! Besides our community goal of 2,000 miles, each of us can enter a personal mileage goal. You can change this as you go and view your progress.
  • There are other ways to access your Virtual results portal as well:
    • Through your profile (small circular icon in upper right of screen) with the blue clickable Submit Virtual Results link under this event in the upcoming events section. 
    • By visiting the Results page from the menu bar (under More) and then clicking on your Name in the Miles for the Mission Results set. Your personal results page will open. Click on the red "Log Activities" button. 
      • You can also copy and share the URL of your personal results page so friends and family can track your progress and even donate to your fundraiser!
