About this race
The Eliza DoLittle Society (TEDS) provides healthy and nutritious solutions to the food insecure in Bermuda with the aim of enhancing their quality of life. TEDS secures both purchased and donated food from local, wholesalers, grocers, farmers, community organizations, individuals, and businesses, such as Island Fresh.
In 2010, the organization's focus shifted from only feeding the homeless, to providing support to any person in Bermuda that was food insecure. We recognize that food insecurity has both physical and emotional impact on those affected by it, and are continuously looking for ways to better serve our clients and help reduce the stress they are experiencing. Our goal is to reduce the cost of food for our clients by providing a bag of groceries based upon the size of their household.
This race, in partnership with Island Fresh, has been dedicated to raising awareness of the food security issues within our community. #FoodRun

What to expect
Written from race dataThe Island Fresh 5k Food Run 5K Run, scheduled for June 23, 2024, in Devonshire, Bermuda, is a unique event that combines a love for fitness with the enjoyment of local flavors. While specific details on its historical origins are not provided, its name suggests a celebration of Bermuda's agricultural bounty and a likely tradition of integrating food elements into the race experience. Participants can anticipate a community-focused event that encourages both competitive running and a leisurely appreciation of the surroundings. The 5k route will likely traverse the scenic landscape of Devonshire. Given Bermuda's geography, runners can expect a relatively flat to gently rolling terrain, often on paved roads or well-maintained trails, offering picturesque views of the island. The weather in late June is typically warm and humid, so participants should prepare for these conditions by hydrating adequately and dressing appropriately. A notable feature of this race, indicated by its title, is the integration of "food" – this could manifest as tasting stations along the course featuring local produce, post-race food vendors, or a focus on healthy, island-inspired refreshments, making it more than just a standard race.
