Melbourne, Fla (April 15, 2025) – The Melbourne Orlando International Airport (MLB) proudly hosted the Running Zone Foundation’s 2025 Brevard Corporate 5K, held on April 10th, bringing together over 2,000 participants and 70 local teams for a high-energy evening of fun, fitness, and community spirit. Now in its sixth year at MLB, this unique event offers participants the rare and special opportunity to run on an active airfield — an experience that continues to set the Brevard Corporate 5K apart and make it a memorable highlight for the community each year. The Eau Gallie High School Aviation Assembly and Fabrication program was this year’s event beneficiary.
Team MLB was out in full force, showcasing the collaborative spirit that defines the airport. Representing a wide range of roles and responsibilities across the airport community, the MLB team included members from: Airport Ambassadors, Finance and Administration, Operations and Maintenance, Ground Handling, Marketing and Business Development, Melbourne Airport Police Department, Delta Air Lines, Menzies Aviation, Transportation Security Administration, TUI Airways Crew, and TUI Musement.
This dynamic and diverse team exemplifies what makes MLB truly special — a cohesive, cross-functional group working together every day to provide a convenient, lower-stress travel experience for passengers from around the world. From the terminal to the tarmac, it takes a team to be successful, and Team MLB proved just how strong and united ours is.
Demonstrating both spirit and speed, MLB proudly earned second place in the fastest company by size 51–99 employee division, a testament to the determination and teamwork that drives the airport’s success both on and off the runway.
“We are more than an airport – we’re a community,” said MLB Executive Director Greg Donovan, A.A.E. “The Brevard Corporate 5K gave us an opportunity to come together, celebrate our partners, and showcase the incredible teamwork that makes MLB such a unique and welcoming gateway.”
The Brevard Corporate 5K continues to be a cornerstone event for businesses across the Space Coast, promoting health, camaraderie, and local pride. MLB is honored to be part of this growing tradition and looks forward to an even stronger showing in 2026.
