On Sunday, October 5th, the community will come together at beautiful Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield, MA for the Miles With Meaning 5K — an event where every mile makes a real difference in someone’s life.
Hosted by Insight Recovery Treatment Center in partnership with Ruth’s Way for Women, this 5K is more than just a run or walk. It’s a movement to support women in recovery by raising funds for sober living scholarships. These scholarships provide women with a safe, supportive environment where they can focus on rebuilding their lives and sustaining long-term recovery.
What to Expect on Race Day
From 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, participants will enjoy a scenic route around Lake Quannapowitt, resource tables from local nonprofits, treatment centers, and businesses, and the uplifting energy of a community united for a cause. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or simply want to support the mission, this event welcomes all.
Why This Event Matters
For many women in recovery, sober living homes are a vital step toward independence and stability. However, the cost can be a barrier. Ruth’s Way for Women works to remove that barrier, ensuring more women have access to the resources they need to thrive. By participating in or sponsoring the Miles With Meaning 5K, you’re helping to change lives.
