Razom 5K Hollywood, FL

5th Annual Razom  Freedom Run 5K

About the Event

Since 2022, the Razom Freedom Run 5K has united communities across the United States every August to celebrate Ukrainian Independence Day — bringing together runners of all abilities in the spirit of freedom. Founded by Ukrainian Olympian Nelya Neporadna, this year's race marks two extraordinary milestones: the 250th Anniversary of the Independence of the United States (1776–2026) and the 35th Anniversary of the Independence of Ukraine (1991–2026). Two nations. Two stories of freedom. One finish line.
