The Walk/Run For Life is a community fundraising event benefiting the work of Your Choice Pregnancy Resource Center.  Every year, fundraising Walkers, Runners and their families gather for our Walk/Run for Life at the Rocky Mount Sports Complex to support YCRC’s vision to come alongside women and men facing unplanned pregnancies.

Resource Center is a Christian ministry providing alternatives to abortion by supporting women and men facing the challenges of unplanned pregnancy, promoting sexual abstinence and offering post abortion recovery support. 
 
There will be a fun celebration with concessions, face painting, music and more! Please bring yourself, your friends and your family to this important event. It's a chance to be a part of the celebration that all LIFE is a gift!

In addition to the 5K, there is a 3/4-mile Prayer Walk and a Littles Toddler Trot for children age 5 and younger.

Last year 92 runners completed the USAT&F-certified 5K course led by Tyson Holland with a time of 20:58. Molly Morningstar led the women with a 22:22 clocking.

Both the run and the walk start at 9 am.  The entry fee for the 5K Run is $35.  There is no entry fee for the Walk.  The 5K fee includes a race packet and long-sleeved t-shirt.

The registration fee is $35 with shirts guaranteed to all those registered by 9/15.  Click here to register.

This USATF certified 5k course is every runner’s dream. It is a beautiful run through Rocky Mount's green-way system. The run will feature paved running surfaces along with a wooden pedestrian bridge. You will run on the Rocky Mount Sports Complex running trails, alongside the Tar River, under bridges and loop around at Stith-Talbot Park. This course is mixed with open sunny areas as well as mature trees and shaded running paths. This will surely be one of the most scenic 5k runs in eastern NC!
