November is National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, and our race lands right in the middle of it. For 25 years this event has been the community's way of saying thank you to the nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains and volunteers who show up for families on their hardest days. Every registration supports the Halifax Health - Hospice Family Caregiver Program, which helps the people caring for a loved one at home. Run it, walk it, or come cheer at the finish line. All of it counts.

Kingdom Acai is our exclusive food vendor for the 25th Annual, and they will be serving on race day. Real Brazilian acai from the Amazon, blended into bowls, smoothies and juices, with no artificial colors, preservatives or additives. It is a very good reason to stick around after you cross the finish line, and the kids will want one too.
