Thomas Broom 5K for LIFE
The Thomas Broom 5K for LIFE is a community 5K scheduled for November 7, 2026, at Winthrop Lake, Eden Terrace, Rock Hill, SC. The event is presented by Palmetto Women's Center and honors a participant who died unexpectedly at the Run for LIFE 5K in 2024. Its stated purpose is to remember that person and to continue a mission focused on protecting unborn life and sharing the gospel.
Palmetto Women's Center describes its mission as promoting LIFE through gospel-centered care and counseling, medical services, education, and resources so that abortion would become unthinkable. Its vision is a community where individuals choose life for their unborn child, receive eternal life through faith in Christ, and pursue abundant life by following Christ.
