About this race

The 14th Annual Run 4 Life 5K, presented by the South Florida Donor Network, is set to take place on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at the scenic Vista View Park. This year’s event offers a unique twist on the traditional 5K by moving the festivities to the afternoon, with a scheduled start time of 4:30 PM. Participants will have the rare opportunity to race against the backdrop of a South Florida sunset, with the event activities concluding as the sun dips below the horizon around 7:30 PM.

​Every participant will receive a high-quality race packet designed to enhance their experience and commemorate their contribution. This includes a personalized race bib featuring an RFID timing chip for accurate results, an official event dri-fit shirt, and a beautiful finisher medal. For those looking for a competitive edge, the event will recognize athletic excellence by providing awards to the top three overall finishers as well as winners across various age groups.

​Beyond the physical challenge, the Run 4 Life 5K serves a vital mission by supporting the South Florida Donor Network. The proceeds from the event directly benefit organ, eye, and tissue donation awareness, honoring the legacy of donors and celebrating the lives of recipients. By participating, runners and walkers contribute to essential education and outreach efforts that help support the thousands of individuals currently waiting for life-saving transplants.
