Steady Strides 2025: Walking, Running, and Rallying for Parkinson’s Awareness

Mark your calendars! On Saturday, September 27, Corwin-Nixon Park in Mason, OH will once again transform into a vibrant hub of unity, joy, and philanthropy for the 17th Annual Steady Strides 5K Walk & Race. Hosted by Parkinson Support & Wellness, this signature event brings together the Greater Cincinnati & Dayton community to celebrate resilience and raise vital funds for local Parkinson’s programs.

Why participate? Whether you’re walking, running, or joining virtually, your step powers transformational work—supporting grants for exercise/therapy groups and empowering educational programs like PD-EDU. Plus, you’ll enjoy free food, live music, a fun-filled raffle in the Wetterer’s Way concourse. And plenty of community cheer next to the Start/Finish Line. For competitive runners Steady Strides is a chip-timed complete 5k course through the beautiful wooded park. And we have a shorter course for those walkers who so choose.

8 AM: Gates open, check-in
10 AM: The 5K kicks off
10:45 AM: Awards ceremony for age-group winners and top overall male/female
