3rd Hope 4 Healing Walk / Run / Roll / Stroll

Lace up for a cause at the 3rd Hope 4 Healing Walk / Run / Roll / Stroll, taking place on Saturday, August 1, 2026, in St. Ann, MO. This inclusive charity event offers a meaningful way to engage in physical activity while supporting Tower of Hope Ministries in their mission to promote healing from childhood trauma. Participants can choose from a 10K, 5K, or 1-Mile walk, with a special Kids' Fun Run also available, ensuring an option for every age and ability. The event proudly welcomes those who wish to walk, run, roll (in wheelchairs), or simply stroll through the scenic course.

The course itself winds through Tiemeyer Park and extends onto neighboring streets, featuring slight inclines to keep things engaging, along with a picturesque lap around a beautiful fountain. This family-friendly event provides a supportive atmosphere, making it ideal for both seasoned runners and those looking for a leisurely morning out. Typical race day conditions in early August can see highs around 90F and lows around 71F, with a 14% chance of precipitation, so planning for warm weather is advisable.

Beyond the physical challenge, the Hope 4 Healing event stands out for its profound purpose. Every step taken helps raise vital funds and awareness for healing from childhood trauma, with proceeds directly benefiting Tower of Hope Ministries' "Build the Tower Campaign" to secure a permanent meeting space and support their programs. The race day agenda begins with registration and packet pickup at 6:30 AM, followed by a group warm-up, opening ceremony, and a prompt 8:00 AM race start at Tiemeyer Park.
