Florida State University's Medical Response Unit has staged their Run For Your Life 5K annually since 2010. The race has been in January, in February, in March. But whatever the date, whatever the month, the race has always been on a Sunday morning. That was the case again on Sunday morning, 2 March 2025, when Esteban Pinilla won the sixteenth annual Run For Your Life 5K. Pinilla ran the 3.1-mile course around the Tallahassee, Florida campus of Florida State University in 19:47. Juliana Krueger was the first woman in the race, placing twelfth overall in 24:22.
Pinilla was an alum of the Saint John Neumann cross-country team, having run for the Celtics during the three seasons spanning 2020 to 2022. Behind Pinilla, Andrew Freeland finished runner-up in 20:06. Dain Brown was third in 20:58. Lawrence King was the first master runner in the 5K, ninth overall in 23:33.
In the women's division, Juliana Krueger was also a veteran of high school cross-country, having raced at Lawton Chiles High from 2012 to 2014 and Lincoln High in 2015. Sadie Wolfe placed second to Krueger in the Run For Your Life women's standings, finishing fourteenth overall in 25:05. Riley Galpin was the third woman and seventeenth overall in 25:58. Patch Nugent was the first woman master and sixth female finisher, 21st overall in 26:32.
