The biggest block party in downtown Birmingham starts at the starting line. Red Shoe Run: Rockin’ 5K is a high-energy morning filled with music, movement, and meaning — all to help families stay close during their child’s medical journey. Every registration provides nights of rest, warm meals, and comfort for families staying at Ronald McDonald House Alabama. Whether you’re running the 5K, walking the 1 Mile Fun Run, or joining as a Snoozer from home, your steps create a lasting impact. After you cross the finish line, the celebration continues with a DJ, awards, and a community that knows how to have fun for a cause. Together, we’re making Family Stays possible. Special thanks to our 2026 Red Shoe Run Committee! Co-Chair: Amber Harbison & Caleb Mills
