Get ready to lace up your running shoes for the 25th Annual Hospice of the Piedmont 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, May 9, 2026! This vibrant event kicks off at 8:00 a.m. in the picturesque Keswick, Albemarle, offering a stunning course that invites participants of all ages and abilities to join in the fun. Whether you're a seasoned runner or a casual walker, this is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Keswick Estate while making lasting memories.

As you navigate the course, be sure to take a moment to honor the loved ones we've lost during the poignant Memorial Mile, beautifully lined with their names.

Not only is this an exciting day for athletes, but it's also a chance to support a noble cause, as all proceeds from the HOP 5K directly benefit Hospice of the Piedmont, aiding those in our community facing serious illness and grief. Join us for a day of joy, remembrance, and support—make every moment and every mile count!
