This isn't just any 5K. It's a chance to come together as a community and show our support for domestic violence survivors. We'll be kicking off at 8:00 AM, ready to run, walk, or even jog our way to a brighter future.
‍

Not in Texas? We've added a virtual race option so you can participate from anywhere in the world! Run, walk, or jog your 5K in your own neighborhood, on a treadmill, or at your favorite park. You'll still get a performance shirt and finisher medal shipped right to you, and your registration will still make a huge impact.
‍

Why September 13th? And Why Texas?
‍

This date is special. It's the anniversary of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). By holding our 5K on this day, we're not just running; we're standing in solidarity, raising our voices, and advocating for a safer community for everyone.
‍

And here's something important to know: Texas unfortunately has some of the highest rates of domestic violence in the nation. This means the support we raise through the HiveStrong BEE-lieve 5K is incredibly critical, directly helping local survivors and making a tangible difference right here in our state.
‍

Every registration for the HiveStrong BEE-lieve 5K, whether you join us in-person or virtually, directly supports a nonprofit dedicated to empowering domestic violence survivors. Your involvement helps fund crucial programs that give individuals the tools and support they need to overcome trauma and rebuild their lives. Imagine the ripple effect of your participation – it truly makes a difference.
