One mile. The most historical race distance ever. So why not run a mile on the streets of historic downtown Fremont, known long ago as the White Light City?!

The White Light Mile will be run on a pancake flat, USATF certified and chip-timed course during Fremont’s 1st Annual Fall Festival with events for the entire family to enjoy all weekend!

The route will be lined with musicians on several street corners and strands of white lights will be strung across portions of the race course. Spectators will be given their own white lights to display while cheering on the throng of runners.

From 5 p.m. until 6:45 p.m., we’ll have waves of runners testing their limits in chip-timed heats. At 6:45 p.m., we’ll hold the elite women’s heat, then at 6:55 p.m., we’ll end the night with the elite men’s race*.

Heats will be set up to run approximately every 10-15 minutes, and each participant will receive an email with their specific wave time 1 week before the race. Wave times will be determined and be at the sole discretion of run nebraska.

Each participant will receive a White Light Mile t-shirt (if registered by September 24th – shirt availability and sizes cannot be guaranteed after this date), a ticket for free post-race BBQ (REAL FOOD!) and a post-race festivities including live music.

Runners will also be eligible for awards, as we’ll recognize the top (non-elite race) male and female and the fastest finisher in each age group. The awards ceremony will follow the elite heats, so stick around and watch some quick times!

For those interested in the elite races, qualifying times are as follows:

• Women: faster than 6:00 in a 1 mile race, or faster than 20:00 in a 5k race
• Men: faster than 5:00 in a 1 mile race, or faster than 16:00 in a 5k race

*If you’re interested in joining the elite men’s or women’s race, you will be required to submit a time from a qualifying race during the registration process. Entry into the elite heat is at the sole discretion of the race organizers and access to that race is not guaranteed. We will cap the elite fields at 15 men and women, respectively.

Our hearts are overflowing with the amount of love and support this event has received over the past 3 years!  Our third annual event impacted approximately 1,300 lives.  The courageous families that have experienced a pregnancy or infant loss flooded the crowd with their brave faces.  The stories, the laughter and tears and the plethora of love and support was felt throughout the evening.  The families and friends that have been touched by loss leave this event feeling loved, validated, safe and supported.  The legacy that their baby has is felt at this beautiful and honoring event.

This 5k run – 1 mile walk is to raise money for pregnancy and infant loss.  An estimated 1 in 4 women will experience this type of loss and statistically today 71 mothers will give birth to a baby born not alive.  Finding support while coping with this type of loss can be very difficult in our community.  HEALing Embrace was created in honor of babies born silently to pregnancy or passed away before their first birthday.  Between the two founders, 6 babies have left them too soon. HEALing Embrace is a designated fund through the Midlands Community Foundation and the goal is to support families that are grieving the loss of their children through financial aid to help cover medical and funeral expenses, postpartum care and grief counseling.  HEALing Embrace also provides FREE grief resources, weighted birth day bears and care packages, certified bereavement support and photography.  We walk with families prior, during and after the birth of their precious baby in the hospital and home to help provide them the best support possible.

Our mission to HEAL – Helping Everyone After Loss – would not be possible without your arms wrapped around these families and showing your support.  We would love to have you join us this year for another encouraging, impactful and touching event!
