Hospice of the Piedmont 5K Run/Walk
The Hospice of the Piedmont 5K Run/Walk is an annual event held in Charlottesville, Virginia. The 2027 edition marks the 26th year of this community gathering, which takes place at the Keswick Estate. The course follows a route through the estate grounds and is open to participants of various ages and physical abilities.
A specific feature of the course is the Memorial Mile, which serves as the final stretch of the race. This section is lined with the names of individuals who have passed away, providing a space for participants to honor their memory while completing the distance.
