Run With Compassion 5K
The Run With Compassion event is held at the Starmount High School cross country course in Boonville, North Carolina (2516 Longtown Road, 27011). The main event is a chip-timed 5K run/walk. The weekend also includes a short novelty race called the Pastor Dash, a 100 m sprint for participating pastors.
The event supports Compassion Care Center; proceeds raise awareness and help provide free, life-affirming services for mothers in the community. The organizer notes the 5K is suited to school-age kids, families, and youth groups training together.
Key event details include registration opening on 2026-08-24. Registration for the 5K closes on 2026-11-06 and Pastor Dash registration closes on 2026-11-20.
