SayStrong 5K

This year, we're celebrating Saydee's love for Halloween with an event packed with spooky thrills, family fun, yummy food and delicious treats! We have so many exciting activities we are working on!  

And YES! We will absolutely be having a costume contest! So come in your best costume! Bonus points for creativity of course! 

We are SO excited to share that this year, the race will be officially timed! 

There is a spot for everyone at the race! We will have a 5K run, a 1 mile fun run, a Tot Trot for the littles, and if none of that sounds fun (is running fun?!) this year we have a ghost runner option!!   You'll get all the perks of the race, without having to run or even needing to be there in person! 

We hope you can join us for a day of unforgettable memories as we honor Saydee, celebrate her love for Halloween, and enjoy time together with our community. We can't wait to see you there!

Race proceeds will go to a very special cause to our hearts. SayStrong Foundation is adopting a room permanently at the Ronald McDonald House Atlanta. The expenses involved in having a child in the hospital are countless, but this will give families who have children with medical needs a place to stay while their child is in the hospital.

Join fellow runners on October 31, 2026 for the SayStrong 5K. It's a fantastic 5K, 1.6K, Ghost Runner, Tot Trot featuring a flat and fast course in Ellijay.
