Her Mind Matters 5K and Fun Run/Walk

Her Mind Matters 5K and Fun Run/Walk takes place in Hendersonville, Tennessee, on November 14, 2026. The main event is the Her Mind Matters 5K Run/Walk (3.1 miles), which starts at 6:00 PM, an evening slot that sets it apart from the usual Saturday-morning 5K. As the name indicates, a fun run/walk is offered alongside the 5K.

An evening race changes your routine a little: eat a light meal a few hours before, stay hydrated through the day, and bring a headlamp or reflective layer in case the finish comes after dark in mid-November. The 5K suits everyone from first-time racers to runners looking for a fast effort, and walkers are welcome on the course. If you are new to the distance, six to eight weeks of run-walk training, three days a week, is enough to feel ready. The fun run/walk is the option for kids and anyone who prefers a shorter, untimed outing.
