Join us for the Brighter Days 5K and Walk for Autism on Sunday, March 15, 2026, in the beautiful Tarpon Springs, Pinellas! This exciting event, now in its fifth year, invites runners and walkers to "Create Your Own Path" along the scenic Pinellas Trail, starting at the vibrant Brighter Days Brewery.

Participants can choose between a challenging 5K race or a leisurely 1-mile walk, all while supporting a great cause. This year, Brighter Days is teaming up with Heart 4 Kids Therapy Centers to raise awareness and funds for local residents needing therapy services through the Brighter Days Heart 4 Kids Scholarship. Everyone will receive an official event shirt, swag bag, a medal, and a complimentary Brighter Days beer! Plus, age group winners in the 5K will take home custom beer glasses. Enjoy local sponsor booths featuring the best running gear, custom gifts, and more. Bring your strollers and furry friends along, but be sure to start towards the back of the pack to avoid any mishaps. Don’t miss this uplifting event—lace up those sneakers and let’s celebrate together!
