Running For Restoration 5k

Strap on your running shoes and gear up for a phenomenal day at our annual 5k event! Set in the lush surroundings of McGalliard Falls Park, we kick off on April 4th, 2026, at 9 AM sharp. This is more than just a race; it's a powerful statement for advocacy—as we strive to raise awareness for the humane treatment of incarcerated individuals in North Carolina. Tackle challenging slopes, sprint across a scenic suspension bridge, and enjoy an invigorating run along the easy gravel paths of Valdese greenway. With early bird pricing, a chance to flaunt your exclusive event shirt, and a variety of awards across age groups, seizing the day has never been so rewarding. Come, make a difference with each stride!
