Be the Light 5K & Walk - Goodlettsville
The Be the Light 5K & Walk is a community event on August 15, 2026, at Moss Wright Park in Goodlettsville, Tennessee. It honors Janie Grace and supports a group of local and international charities connected to her legacy.

The event program includes a timed 5K run, a shorter kids run for children 12 and under, and an untimed one mile walk.

Dogs are not allowed on the course and participants who bring strollers are asked to line up toward the back.
