UR Medicine Home Care Hospice 5K - Presented by Fleet Feet

UR Medicine Home Care Hospice 5K - Presented by Fleet Feet takes place in Rochester, New York, on October 25, 2026. Two options start together at 9:30 a.m.: a timed 5K run and a 1.25-mile walk, so participants can pick the effort that fits them and still finish around the same time.

Pairing a race with a shorter walk makes this a good event to sign up for as a group, with the walk accessible to anyone comfortable on their feet for twenty to thirty minutes. Runners aiming at a 5K time will find the 9:30 a.m. start unusually civilized, leaving room for breakfast and an unhurried warm-up. A month of consistent running, with one weekly session at a harder effort, covers the preparation for the 3.1-mile option.
