About the event

Common Grounds 5K & Alecia’s Kids 1K — Mission Statement

The mission of the Common Grounds 5K & Alecia’s KIDS 1k is to bring our community together on common ground—united in faith, hope, and compassion—to support individuals and families impacted by mental health and substance abuse.

As an interfaith community event, we believe that while our churches, backgrounds, and stories may be different, we share a common purpose: to offer hope, encourage recovery, strengthen families, and support local programs serving the Temple-Belton community.

Through the Common Grounds 5K, we run and walk alongside those whose lives have been touched by mental health challenges and substance use disorders—celebrating recovery, remembering those lost, and reminding those still struggling that our community cares.

 Alecia’s Kids 1K, created especially for children ages 10 and under, brings our youngest participants into that mission with a celebration of joy, hope, and the promise of a brighter future.

Different faiths. Different stories. One common ground.
