Run for Hope 5K

Lace up your running shoes and get ready for a one-of-a-kind race experience! Join us on Saturday, September 12th, for a brand-new 5K event that brings the excitement of the track directly to your feet. Whether you are aiming for a new personal record or just looking for a fun morning walk with friends, this event is built for all paces and ages.

A Course Like No Other!
This isn’t your standard road race. Our unique, behind-the-scenes 5K course will take you on a scenic route through the historic Ellis Park grounds. You will run past the paddocks, take in the beautiful facility, and experience the ultimate thrill: crossing the finish line right on the main dirt race track!

The Kids Dash (Featuring the Inflatable Pony!)
Bring the whole family! We are hosting a special Kids Dash for our younger runners – 12 and under. To make it extra memorable, the dash will feature a hilariously fun inflatable pony!
