5 Miles Home

5 Miles Home is a five-mile mass-start running race in Raynham, Massachusetts, held on a Sunday. The race supports a local charity: every profit dollar benefits Homes for Our Troops, a Taunton-based organization that builds and donates specially adapted custom homes for severely injured post-9/11 veterans nationwide. The course follows Raynham’s streets and concludes at a festival where family, friends, and sponsors await at the finish. The event resembles a community run more than a standalone competition, with the finish area directly linked to the fundraising mission and the veterans the charity supports.
