Bodie's Light 5k Fun Run/Walk
About this race
Join us for the fourth annual Bodie's Light 5k Fun Run during Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month! This will be an untimed fun run/walk benefiting Bodie's Light.
The fun run will begin at Heritage Park in Olympia, WA and circle around Capitol Lake twice. Capitol Lake is stroller friendly. There are two parking lots on Water Street (the address listed) and on Simmons Street NW. Street parking and parking lot across 5th Ave are also available.
Bodie's Light is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in honor of our son, Bodie Trace Gagnon. Our mission is to provide resources and support to families who have lost their babies to stillbirth. Bodie's Light provides boxes of items and resources to help these families make memories with their child in the hospital and beyond. So far we have donated boxes to three local hospitals. All registration fees and donations will be used toward our mission.
In person fun run is on October 11, 2026.
