It’s time for the 12th Annual St. Mark’s Emancipation Day 5k!

If you wander by McCullough Field on Saturday morning each fall, you may wonder what all those people having fun are doing? They’re running in honor of Emancipation Day and to help fight diabetes by supporting University of Maryland’s Center for Diabetes and Endocrinology-Midtown that serves Baltimore and the region. Organized by the congregation at historic St. Mark’s United Methodist Church on 8th Street, it’s always a great and fun time to get out in our community, meet neighbors, and do some good in the process.

And don’t worry if running isn’t your thing, you can also:

  • Walk the 5k, or
  • Opt for a 1k Fun Walk (also a great option for young kids), or
  • If you’re not able to make it on race day, be sure to checkout the Virtual Race option to participate when/ wherever you’re at.
