The 14th annual East Avenue Grocery Run to benefit Rochester-area food pantries – November 4, 2023!

Join us in-person or virtually for the Grocery Run 5k and 1 mile run/walk to benefit local food pantries! In-person participants can choose our fast, flat 5k course down East Avenue and along the Riverway Trail, or a quick 1-mile out and back on beautiful East Avenue. The live events start at 8:00 a.m. on November 4th, 2023 at Third Presbyterian Church, 4 Meigs St., Rochester. Virtual participants can choose any distance to run, bike, walk or stroll and complete their event anytime, anywhere November 3rd – 5th.

Either way, you’ll feel great knowing your entire registration fee will go directly to Rochester-area organizations providing food, hope and dignity for hungry people.

Register by midnight October 9th to receive your preferred size, super-soft performance-fabric commemorative race t-shirt!

Thanks to our generous sponsors, donors and volunteers, the 2022 Grocery Run raised more than $57,000 for Rochester-area food pantries. We hope to do even better this year! Please join us and make a difference!
