Event summary

Join us for the 48 Miles of HOPE event on Saturday, February 7, 2026, in Winston-Salem, Forsyth! This exciting annual event features a variety of race distances to participate in, including a 5K, 10K, 48-mile challenge, and a fun-filled 1 Mile Fun Run. For the first time, there will also be a relay option, allowing teams of up to six friends to share the journey and tackle the full 48 miles together!

Although the race will be held virtually this year due to icy and snowy conditions at Kimberly Park, the spirit of community and support for HOPE of Winston Salem remains strong. Runners will complete laps around the picturesque .55-mile crushed gravel trail loop, with a dynamic after-party featuring food, drinks, and exciting giveaways! This family-friendly event not only promotes fitness and fellowship but also supports a noble cause, as all proceeds benefit HOPE of Winston Salem to combat food insecurity in Forsyth County. Mark your calendars and get ready to celebrate Justin's birthday while making a positive impact in the community!

Organiser's Description

NOTICE: DUE TO THE ICY AND SNOWY CONDITIONS AT KIMBERLY PARK AND IN THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY, 48 MILES FOR HOPE WILL BE A VIRTUAL EVENT FOR ALL RUNNERS.

For the fifth consecutive year, Justin will spend his birthday running his age in miles, all to raise money and awareness for HOPE of Winston Salem! Like the last two years, there will be a 5K, 10K, and 1 Mile Fun Run to take place as Justin runs laps around the loop at Kimberley Park. For the First time, there will be a RELAY option, so gather up to 6 friends and run the full 48 relay-style.

As always, you can sign up for the 48 mile "Fun Run" to go the full distance!

This year's after party will be the best yet, so stick around after the race for food, drink, fellowship and giveaways!

The Course is a .55 mile crushed gravel trail loop at Kimberley Park, just outside of downtown Winston Salem. 5Kers will run a little under 6 laps and 10Kers will run just over 11 laps. Each race will start at different times to allow people to spread out.

This is a family event complete with prizes, giveaways, and fellowship. Prizes will be awarded for Top Overall Female and Male finishers. Food and snacks will be available on site to help you fuel up post-race. All proceeds benefit HOPE of Winston Salem and help curb food insecurity for many families in Forsyth County.
