Dunn’s Run Marks 30 Years of Racing for a Cause in Deerfield Beach

A South Florida running tradition will celebrate a major milestone when the 30th Annual Dunn’s Run returns to Deerfield Beach on Sunday, Jan. 10, 2027.

The annual event, benefiting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County, will bring runners, walkers, families and teams together along A1A for a morning of fitness and fundraising near the beach.

Participants can choose between a timed 5-mile run and a 5K run/walk, while children ages 6 and younger can take part in a Kids Fun Run. Participants can also form teams with coworkers, friends, running clubs or gym partners.

Dunn’s Run was founded by the late Jim Dunn, founder of J.R. Dunn Jewelers, as a way to bring the community together while supporting local children. What began as a local race has since grown into an annual South Florida tradition.

Over the past three decades, Dunn’s Run has raised more than $3.6 million for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County. Funds raised through the event support programs designed to help local children and teens develop skills, build confidence and prepare for their futures.

The J.R. Dunn Jewelers team continues to participate in the race each year, carrying on Dunn’s commitment to giving back to the community.

The 30th anniversary event offers participants a chance to start 2027 with a fitness goal while supporting an organization serving young people throughout Broward County.

Dunn’s Run takes place Sunday, Jan. 10, 2027, in Deerfield Beach. To register, visit:
