On Saturday, November 15, 2025, at 7am at Fletcher’s Cove is our fourth annual Run 4 MK. In partnership with Bishop’s Events, we’re coming together to run in support of ending chronic homelessness in Washington, DC 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏿!

By participating in person or virtually, you’ll support Miriam’s Kitchen’s essential programs and services. The run is scheduled near Veterans Day and at the start of National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week (November 16-22, 2025). These dates align closely with the heart of our work and the people we serve.

Run 4 MK honors the legacy of Waldon Adams, our late friend, former guest, and community leader. Waldon was an avid runner—who completed more than 80 races, including 15 marathons. He was also a passionate advocate who helped others find safe and stable housing. We will celebrate his life and impact, five years after his passing.

The race takes place at a meaningful location; within the area our Outreach Team regularly serves. It’s a chance to connect with the community, meet other passionate advocates, and take action for housing justice.

Whether you run, walk, or cheer from afar your participation in this race brings community together. All proceeds go to support Miriam's Kitchen in our mission to end chronic homelessness in DC.
