Race for Recovery 5K
The Shelby County Recovery Court Foundation presents the 12th annual Race for Recovery 5k in historic Overton Park in Memphis, Tennessee on September 26, 2026. The event is presented as a community race that supports local recovery services.
All proceeds from the Race for Recovery 5k will directly fund services for Drug Court participants, with the stated goal of helping participants become contributing members of Shelby County. The Recovery Court program has worked for over two decades with individuals and families affected by alcohol and drug issues and describes impacts that include reduced drug use and crime, rebuilt lives, and a stronger community.
Event features listed by the organizer include a 5k course, a post-race gathering with food, medals and awards, and opportunities to remember those who have passed. Standard registration for the 5k is listed at $39.44. A Graduate 5k entry is offered free for Drug Court graduates and participants; that registration requires an access code provided by a Drug Court coordinator or mentor.
