The Mermaid Run

Dive into the excitement of the 5th Annual MERMAID RUN 5K and MERMAID MILE FUN RUN! Make a splash on August 24, 2024, at Festival Park in Aberdeen, MD. Rise with the tide for the 5K kickoff at 8:00 am, followed by the eagerly anticipated Mermaid Mile. Run, jog, or swim through a USATF Certified course that's fast, flat, and thrives on your most creative costumes—plus, there will be music and prizes to keep the current of fun flowing!

Every stride you take supports the Sea of Hope Foundation, helping families navigate through the heartbreak of infancy and pregnancy loss with essential support and assistance. As an added reward, collect a pro-grade finisher's medal and event shirt to celebrate your journey. Come rain or shine, there are no wave-goodbyes with refunds, but every participant makes a ripple of hope. Get ready to be part of an unforgettable sea of runners making a difference!
