About
The Miles for Messiah 5K is an annual race held at Pleasant View Community Church. This race is the main fundraiser for our youth program. From this event alone, we are able to raise enough money to fund our youth group’s yearly Summer Camp and Winter Retreat. The Miles for Messiah 5K starts and finishes at Pleasant View Community Church. We also offer a pancake breakfast to all the runners after the race. The course is a figure 9 with a loop off of Doggett Road and one gradual incline. Our church leaders and youth group manage the event and try to make it an event that is fun for the whole family. The race has been in the Rutherford Outdoor Coalition race series since 2012.
The 2023 Miles for Messiah 5K will be held on May 20th, 2023.
The race starts at 8:00am
