TY Five 5K Run/Walk
The TY Five 5K Run/Walk is a community event held at East Rogersville Baptist Church in Rogersville, Tennessee. The main distance is a 5K run or walk of about 3.1 miles. The event is described as family-friendly and focused on remembrance and support for families affected by pregnancy and infant loss.
The gathering honors the memory of a baby who was stillborn at 39 weeks and aims to bring people together for reflection and mutual support. Proceeds from the event will benefit stillbirth and miscarriage research as well as community development and outreach to people experiencing similar losses.
Parking is available at multiple nearby locations: in front of East Rogersville Baptist Church, across the street at Hawkins Elementary, and at Rogersville Middle School down the road. A registration fee of $25 is listed for participation options that include the 5K and a supporting entry listed as Sleeping but Supporting. The event description emphasizes community involvement, remembrance, and directing funds toward research and local support services rather than competition or awards.
