Rylee's Run/Walk 5K
Rylee's Run/Walk 5K is a live and virtual 5 kilometer event in Memphis that takes place on June 13, 2026, at the Mike Rose Soccer Complex (9000 East Shelby Drive). The event commemorates the life of a child who was born at 32 weeks and died eight days later due to complications of premature birth. Proceeds support the LeBonheur Children's Hospital Neuroscience Institute and NICU; fundraising progress and a goal are listed for the event.
Registration offers several participation categories including in-person Adult 5K, Kids 5K for ages 12 and under, Spirit Runner (shirt only), and a Virtual Participant option. Virtual entries have results posted but are not eligible for age group prizes; children 12 and under receive a $10 discount for virtual entry. Registrations completed by June 1 are guaranteed to receive the event shirt at packet pickup or on race day. Shirt styles include women's tech, super soft cotton, and unisex tech.
Packet pickup is scheduled the day before at Fleet Feet Memphis and on race day at the Mike Rose Soccer Complex. A post race gathering provides food and beverages, including pasta from Venice Kitchen, DoubleTree cookies, beer from Grind City, and Prairie Farms chocolate milk for children. For course safety, vehicle access to the complex is restricted during the race window. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
