ORL 5K on the Runway at Orlando Executive Airport

Join us on April 4th at 7:00 AM at the Orlando Executive Airport!
The ORL 5K ON THE RUNWAY (formally known as 5k Run for the Angels) is a unique community event that brings runners and aviation supporters together for an unforgettable race on an airport runway—all while supporting meaningful aviation-related causes.
Proceeds from the event benefit Angel Flight Southeast, Vision of Flight, and The Orlando Youth Aviation Center, three organizations making a powerful impact through aviation.
Angel Flight Southeast provides free, life-saving flights for children and adults who must travel long distances for critical medical care. Supported by volunteer pilots who donate their time, aircraft, and resources, the organization helps ease the financial and emotional burden on families during times of greatest need.

Vision of Flight inspires youth ages 10–18 to pursue futures in aviation and STEM through firsthand flying experiences, simulator training, summer camps, and mentorship. Event proceeds help expand access to these programs, empowering the next generation of aviation leaders. To learn more about Vision of Flight, visit their website at Vision of Flight
The Orlando Youth Aviation Center engages Central Florida youth ages 12–17 in aviation education through hands-on classes covering the fundamentals of flight, airports, navigation, and aviation careers. Offered in three sessions each year—Fall, Winter, and Spring—each program culminates with a flight experience that sparks curiosity and inspires future aviators. Donations directly support educational materials, training aids, and flight experiences, helping ensure continued access to aviation education and hands-on learning for local students.

Together, the ORL 5K ON THE RUNWAY supports compassion, education, and the future of aviation —making every step on the runway a step towards a lasting impact.
