Organiser's Description

Saving Grace Is on a mission and needs your help! Saving Grace is hosting an in person 5K run and 1-mile run/ walk event at Victor Ashe Park this May to raise funds for their local non-profit mission work. This women's home aids women with faith based drug and abuse recovery to influence positive life changing growth with a lifelong impact. If you can't join us in person on the day of the race, you may choose to participate in the virtual 5K opportunity by walking or running a course of your choosing while still supporting Saving Grace's mission.

All participants in the 5K (physical and virtual) will receive a Race T-shirt, please sign up before May 10th to guarantee your shirt size will be available. Hang around after with us for the award ceremony.

Participants in the virtual event will not be scored, please submit results anytime in the 10-day window so we can know who participated! T-shirts will be mailed out within a week of the events scheduled date.

Course will start near the main pavillion and will travel out and down towards the Elementary School before looping back up the same path to finish where the race began from.

Awards will be given to top runners as well as to Age Group winners.

Awards will be given to top 3 Male & top 3 Females overall. Age Groups will be awarded to top individual per gender for every 10 year increment (9 & under, 10-19, 40-49 etc). All finishers will receive a T-shirt with their registration. Orders will close one week before the race date, registrations within the week leading up to race day are NOT guaranteed a giveaway item. All 1 mile runners under the age of 10 will receive a finisher token at the finish line.

Restrooms are available near the event start/ finish area along with a water fountain.

All proceeds for this event will benefit the Saving Grace Women's home of Tennessee. Proceeds go to supporting the mission of rehabilitation for local women. Saving Grace began in 2015 with 2 homes, one for men (Project Hope) and one for women (Saving Grace). 10 years later, they now have 8 homes in 5 states and are continuing to love their neighbors one by one. All donations go to supporting the center with housing and annual expenses for residents and treatments needed. We hope to see you out there and lending your support!
