Lexington Medical Center Heart & Sole Women's Five Miler
The Lexington Medical Center Heart & Sole Women's Five Miler is a women's-only running and walking event held in Columbia, South Carolina, at Gills Creek Memorial Park in Forest Acres. The event takes place on May 16, 2026, and is organized as a single-day community event by Lexington Medical Center Heart & Sole Women's Five Miler.
Distances included in the event:
- 5-mile Run/Walk
- 3.5-mile Fitness Walk
The five-mile run and walk entries will be chip-timed for runners and walkers. The 3.5-mile fitness walk is presented as an untimed, more relaxed experience. The course is described as a scenic neighborhood route at a new venue for this edition.
This edition revives the Heart & Sole women’s event after it was retired in 2020. The event continues to emphasize women's health and healthy lifestyles. Commemorative medals are offered to participants. An all-female race committee is involved in planning and preparing the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
