About the 2026 Never Walk Alone Annual 5K
This event is built around walking, not racing, and the pace reflects that. It honors first responders and raises awareness for PTSD and mental health, so the crowd tends to be people with a personal connection to that cause. Families bring kids, and the mood is quiet solidarity more than finish-line energy.
After the walk, the gathering continues with a BBQ, entertainment for children, and resource booths focused on mental health support. It is less a post-race party and more a community meeting point, a place to sit with others who showed up for the same reason.
