Angels Among Us 2027 - 5K & Walk for HOPE
The Angels Among Us 5K and Walk for HOPE is an annual fundraising event supporting brain tumor research at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke. The course runs through Duke University campus, passing Duke Chapel and the Sarah P. Duke Gardens. The 5K is a USATF certified, professionally timed race and includes a race bib with timing chip, a commemorative medal, and awards for eligible winners. Awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in multiple age categories, plus an overall and survivors category.
The Walk for HOPE offers two wheelchair accessible route options, one a half mile loop around the Duke Medicine Circle and another that adds about one mile through the Duke Gardens. Children ages 2 to 10 can participate in the Li'l Angels Dash on Flowers Drive; that event provides a bib, event T-shirt, and an award, and is limited to 300 participants.
General parking is available at 2011 Yearby Avenue in Durham, NC, with designated accessible parking on Flowers Drive accessed from Erwin Drive. Online registration closes April 22 with in-person registration available on the day of the event, April 24. Registration categories and fees vary by registration period and participant type, including a VIP 5K option and a Distant Angel category.
