MICC's 6th Annual Independence 5k Run/Walk
​Saturday, October 7, 2023

Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 7th and prepare to be a part of something truly meaningful at the 6th annual Independence 5K Run/1-Mile Walk, hosted by Minnesota Independence College and Community.

This event is not just about lacing up your sneakers and hitting the pavement; it's about coming together as a community to support autistic and neurodivergent adults. By participating in this event, you'll be championing inclusivity, fostering acceptance, and supporting independence for all.

Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual walker, a spirited cheerleader, or an enthusiastic volunteer, there's a place for you at this unforgettable experience. Feel the thrill of the race as you conquer the course, or take a leisurely stroll and soak up the electric atmosphere surrounding you. No matter how you choose to engage, your presence will make an impact.

Your support means the world to us. Every step you take, every cheer you share, and every moment you volunteer will contribute to our collective mission of empowering those who deserve to be heard and celebrated. So, gather your friends, family, and colleagues, and let's make this year's Independence 5K Run/1-Mile Walk the most impactful one yet.


We can't wait to cross that finish line with you and express our gratitude for your unwavering support!
