About the Event

Want to run a race AND make a difference?

Triad Pediatrics Foundation exists to increase awareness and take action in hopes of alleviating suffering. Our goal is to serve those who need it most both locally and globally and offer physical, mental and spiritual help in whatever way we can. This is why “Every Mile Counts”! We are sending a medical mission team to Tenwek Hospital in Kenya this December. You participating in our race helps support this trip!

Our race will be held in High Point with the course beginning at Triad Pediatrics - Africa and joining the Bicentennial Greenway. This will offer a course with scenic views! Children of all ages and babies in strollers welcome (please note there is a small portion of the race that will be on a sidewalk.) The 5k event will be timed
with prizes for different age groups as well as overall winners and the 1 mile fun run/walk will just be for fun! T-shirts guaranteed for everyone who registers by September 30th.

There will be vendors in the parking lot from 9 AM-11:30 AM for anyone to visit during or after the race along with our neighboring businesses!

This will be our second annual 5k and fun run fundraiser, and we are excited for you to be a part and help us make a difference!
