Jacksonville, AL — The 100 Alabama Miles Challenge is kicking off in Jacksonville with a free, family-friendly event on Saturday, May 3, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Jacksonville Community Center.
Titled “One Mile Your Way & Family Fun Day,” the event encourages residents to get outside, be active, and explore their community while joining thousands across the state participating in the 100 Alabama Miles Challenge. Participants can walk, run, bike, hike, or roll for one mile in whatever way suits them best.
The first 50 participants to arrive will receive a free commemorative t-shirt. The event will also feature a variety of local vendors, inflatables for kids, a lively dance party, and other fun activities for all ages.
Organizers hope the kickoff will energize the community to join the statewide movement promoting health, wellness, and outdoor recreation.
No registration is required, and the event is open to everyone. Whether you’re looking to start a new fitness goal, spend time with family, or just enjoy a festive morning outdoors, this is a great way to get moving and connect with others in the Jacksonville area.
