What is the Unified 5k?

Athletes using handcycles and racing wheelchairs participate in a Unified 5K race, wearing helmets and race bibs. A crowd of runners and spectators gathers in the background.

The Unified 5k is more than a race, it’s a movement. It is built on the idea that every person deserves the opportunity to compete. Whether you’re running, walking, or rolling, whether you go 5000m or 500m, whether you finish in 17 minutes or an hour and 17 minutes, we want to celebrate your accomplishment. 

Two athletes stand behind custom racing wheelchairs with two participants seated, ready to start a race under a large green 'START' banner. The athletes wear 'Team Hoyt' shirts, symbolizing an inclusive race experience. The background features a crowd of spectators and colorful banners on a city street.
