Hope for Haiti 5K and Fun Run

Hope for Haiti 5K and Fun Run is held in Saint Augustine, Florida, on October 31, 2026. The 5K run and walk of 3.1 miles starts at 8:00 a.m., followed fifteen minutes later by a one-mile fun run at 8:15 a.m. The staggered starts mean a household can split across both without anyone waiting around long.

That fifteen-minute gap is the practical detail to plan around: if you are racing the 5K and someone in your group is doing the mile, you will still be on course when their race begins, so agree on a meeting point at the finish beforehand. For the 5K itself, a month of running three or four times a week, with one session of faster intervals, is enough to arrive prepared. The one-mile format is a good first race for kids or anyone testing the water.
