The Miami Joy Project hosted Superhero Miles, an event where runners dressed up as their favorite superheroes.

Organizers said the event was to support children with special needs and medically complex conditions.

Participants were able to collect superhero costume pieces along the 5K path, with capes, masks, gloves and other items helping to transform the runners into costumed heroes.

Local 10’s Samiar Nefzi was there for all the fun, and his full report can be seen at the top of this page.
