Chase and Cole Memorial 5K

Join the community in a heartfelt tribute at the Chase and Cole Memorial 5K, set to take place on Saturday, June 6, 2026, in the scenic Villa Hills, Kentucky. This inspiring 5K run and walk honors the vibrant lives of brothers Chase and Cole Fischer, both dedicated runners on the Villa Cross Country Team, who tragically passed away in July 2023. The event embodies their passion for running and life, fostering an uplifting and meaningful experience for participants of all ages and abilities. All proceeds from this special race are proudly donated to the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Cincinnati, a cause that was close to the brothers' hearts, providing vital support to young people in the community.

The course, beginning and ending at Villa Madonna Academy, will wind through the picturesque Villa Hills neighborhood, offering a pleasant backdrop for your 3.1-mile journey. Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions in early June, with highs generally around 81°F and lows around 61°F, and about a 16% chance of precipitation, making for potentially comfortable running weather. After crossing the finish line, the celebration continues with a lively post-race party featuring music by DJ Diamond, delicious food from A Catered Affair, and refreshing treats from the Kona Ice truck. Awards will be presented to the top three male and female finishers in each age group, recognizing the achievements of all who participate in this memorable event.

The Chase and Cole Memorial 5K is more than just a race; it's a powerful gathering of community, remembrance, and charitable giving. With its widespread support and dedication to a significant cause, this event promises a rewarding experience for every runner and walker looking to celebrate life, honor a legacy, and contribute to a brighter future for youth in the Greater Cincinnati area.
