Maddie's Miles 5K Memorial Run/Walk
Maddie's Miles is a memorial 5K run and walk held on October 3, 2026 at Jamison Park in Winston-Salem. The course is an out and back route on the Muddy Creek Greenway. The event carries the theme "Still in the Game" and honors a life affected by addiction while promoting resilience and community support.
Proceeds support Phoenix Rising of Winston Salem, Inc., a local nonprofit that focuses on drug court programs and related prevention, treatment, and recovery services. Event materials note the ongoing impact of the opioid crisis and frame the race as a way to raise funds for local interventions and support services.
On-site features listed for the day include auction items, prizes, and food. Ruff Love Rescue will be present with adoptable dogs. There is no early packet pick up; packet pick up is scheduled for the morning of the race starting at 7:15 am. Registration opens April 1, 2026 and closes September 25, 2026, with a listed registration fee of $30.00. A Maddie's Miles T-shirt is available for purchase through the event store for those who want the shirt without participating in person.
The presentation notes a local law firm as a presenting sponsor and describes the event as a community-focused memorial supporting recovery efforts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
