Brianna Marie Foundation 5K

Lace up for a truly heartwarming experience at the 14th Annual Brianna Marie Foundation 5K, taking place on Saturday, February 28, 2026, in beautiful Melbourne, FL. This 5K Run/Walk, alongside a "Run for the Kids Challenge" and a virtual option, is more than just a race; it's a vibrant gathering dedicated to advancing fetal medicine and offering hope to families. Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 76°F and lows near 56°F, and only a 5% chance of precipitation, providing ideal weather for a fantastic race.

The event unfolds at Wickham Park (Pavilion #4), offering a scenic setting for your 3.1-mile journey. While specific course details on elevation are not provided, runs within park environments in Florida typically feature a flat, runner-friendly course, making it accessible for participants of all skill levels, from seasoned runners to casual walkers. What truly sets this event apart is its profound mission and family-friendly atmosphere, featuring delightful children's activities, a touching butterfly release, and a 50/50 raffle, creating a memorable day for everyone involved.
