Inaugural Faith Over Fear 5K
The Faith over Fear 5K is an inaugural running event held in Athens, Georgia. This event serves as a fundraiser to support local individuals and families who are affected by cancer. All proceeds from the race are directed to the East Georgia Cancer Coalition (EGCC), a nonprofit organization based in Athens.
The EGCC focuses on several areas of community support, including free cancer prevention education and various wellness programs. The funds also help provide support services and care packages specifically for individuals who are currently undergoing active cancer treatment. A primary feature of this event is that all money raised remains within the state of Georgia to support local communities.
Participants can choose from the following options:
- 3.1 Miles running race
- 3.1 Miles Phantom Runner (t-shirt only, no running involved)
The race takes place at 205 Old Commerce Road. Participants who register for the Phantom Runner category receive an event t-shirt without participating in the physical run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
