From the Race Organizer
Miles for Missions is an annual 1 Mile Fun Run and 5k with all proceeds going to support youth and their summer Mission Trip! We are moving back to town! With the growth of our run the last couple of years, parking has become more of an issue for our run. We are so thankful that we have been able to partner with Spartan Fitness for the start and finish of our race. This year we will move back to town to the church for the start and finish. It will be at First Baptist Church, 404 Church St. Columbia LA 71418. We are also going to have a family day following the race! We will have food and lots of fun for the entire family.
