Hope in Pink 5K

Hope in Pink is an annual event organized by the University of Georgia to support the fight against breast cancer. The event takes place in Athens, Georgia, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. The course is open to a variety of participants, including university students, faculty, staff, and members of the surrounding community.

The event consists of a single distance:

  • 5 km run or walk

Proceeds from the registration fees are donated to the American Cancer Society via the university's Relay For Life campaign. Participants are encouraged to wear pink clothing during the race. The gathering serves as a way to honor those affected by cancer and celebrate survivors. The event is held at a location on Old Commerce Road. Registration is available for individuals 18 years of age or older, with a specific registration window opening in September. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
