2026 SCARE 5K and Rhythm of Life Health Fair
The 16th Annual SCARE 5K and Rhythm of Life Health Fair takes place on October 24, 2026 at Amerson River Park in Macon, Georgia. The event serves as the signature fundraising activity for the Georgia Arrhythmia Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on reducing death and disability from sudden cardiac arrest through community education and access to lifesaving resources.
Every registration helps fund Automated External Defibrillator donations to local organizations and supports free CPR and AED training offered in the community. The event combines a timed 5K, a one mile heart walk, and a virtual 5K option to provide multiple ways to participate and support the foundation's mission.
Packet pickup is available the day before at Georgia Arrhythmia Consultants, 639 Hemlock Street, 2nd Floor, Macon, GA 31201, and on race day at Amerson River Park. Awards are scheduled after the event.
