About this race
5K in Honor of Renard Jayson Neal Jr.
Join us for a heartfelt 5K celebrating the life, spirit, and enduring legacy of Renard Jayson Neal Jr.: a cherished firefighter, son, brother, friend, mentor, and source of inspiration to so many.
Renard lived with courage, compassion, and a deep commitment to serving others. This event is an opportunity for family, friends, fellow firefighters, and the entire community to come together, share in his memory, and carry forward the values he embodied. Every mile will be a tribute to the difference Renard made and the love he continues to inspire.
In partnership with the College Park Fire Department, this donation-based event will support the Georgia Firefighters Burn Foundation, an organization that provides vital assistance to burn survivors and their families. By participating, you help extend Renard’s legacy of service and compassion to others in need.

Participation: Open to all ages and fitness levels. Run, walk, bring a stroller, or simply join us in showing your support—everyone is welcome!
Bring your family, invite your friends, and come be part of a day filled with remembrance, connection, and hope. Together, we can celebrate Renard’s life, honor his service, and support the firefighters and burn survivors who continue to need our community’s care.
Every step carries his memory forward. Every donation continues his legacy of service. Together, we honor Renard by showing up for one another.
